Abstract
The science of security informatics has become a rapidly growing field involving different branches of computer science and information technologies. Software protection, particularly for security applications, has become an important area in computer security. This paper proposes a joint compiler/hardware infrastructure - CODESSEAL - for software protection for fully encrypted execution in which both program and data are in encrypted form in memory. The processor is supplemented with an FPGA-based secure hardware component that is capable of fast encryption and decryption, and performs code integrity verification, authentication, and provides protection of the execution control flow. This paper outlines the CODESSEAL approach, the architecture, and presents preliminary performance results.
