Problems solved by technology

[0002] Nowadays, computers are usually used by multiple people, and related hardware devices are shared. At the same time, the files on the hard disk are also shared by all users of the computer, which is inconvenient to use in some cases, such as unauthorized users through USB U disk may illegally copy data, view other people's data or files
The current practice of Microsoft Windows is to solve the configuration problems of computer equipment through administrator accounts and other accounts, but it cannot solve the problems of illegal copying and viewing of files by users.
The system manufacturer solves the problem of illegal copying through the USB port by configuring the USB disable switch, but it is inconvenient to use and cannot solve the problem of different usage rights for different people

Embodiment Construction

[0025] Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing the basic framework of a system for configuring and protecting user software and hardware configuration information according to the present invention.

[0027] As shown in Figure 1, assuming that there are three users (i.e., User 1, User 2, and User 3), the system will construct VTPM1, VTPM2, and VTPM3 for these three different users through a VMM (Virtual Machine Monitor) (VTPM is a virtual trusted platform module). Then, the software and hardware configuration information corresponding to each user is managed through VTPM1, VTPM2 and VTPM3. Meanwhile, for three different users, the virtual machine monitor can create different operating systems for each user, namely, OS1, OS2 and OS3. Therefore, the virtual machine monitor provides different operating platforms for these three users. On this platform, the...

Abstract

The invention provides a method for allocating and protecting the allocation information of software and hardware, the method includes following steps: the VMM allocates the user's information for the user, the relative hardware information and software information, and stores them in the TPM, when the user input the user's information, the VMM read the relative hardware information and software information from the TPM to form the relative hardware information and software information of present user, and the present hardware information and present software information are stored in the VTPM; the VMM uses the hardware information and software information stored in the VTPM, and constructs the virtual hardware and available software corresponding to present user.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method and system for configuring and protecting user software and hardware configuration information, which can prevent unauthorized users from tampering with the corresponding software and hardware configuration information. Background technique [0002] Nowadays, computers are usually used by multiple people, and related hardware devices are shared. At the same time, the files on the hard disk are also shared by all users of the computer, which is inconvenient to use in some cases, such as unauthorized users through USB U disk may illegally copy data, view other people's data or files. The current practice of Microsoft's Windows is to solve the problem of configuring computer equipment through administrator accounts and other accounts, but it cannot solve the problems of users illegally copying and viewing files. The system manufacturer solves the problem of illegal duplication through the USB port by configuring the USB ...
