Description: |
seL4 is a formally verified microkernel for building secure systems. A key element of such systems is secure access to terminal I/O (i.e. the screen, keyboard, and mouse), which means that different applications can get user input and output without worrying that other malicious applications (such as a key logger) can interfere. Nitpicker is a secure display architecture developed at Technical University of Dresden. In this project implement a version of Nitpicker for seL4, and use it as the basis for building a secure windowed terminal. Evaluate the resulting system by analysing its functionality, performance, and security. |
