Abstract:
A cryptographic method is provided for a host system having an associated trusted platform module. A first contribution to a message is computed by the TPM based on a first secret parameter stored in the TPM. The host system computes a second contribution to the message based on a second secret parameter stored in the host system outside the TPM. The first and second contributions to the message are then combined by either the host or the TPM and a first proof is conducted, proving to the host system that the contribution of the TPM was computed correctly or proving to the TPM that the contribution of the host was computed correctly.
