Computing devices are disclosed that include functionality for providing a trustworthy indication of software integrity. The computing devices include a hardware trust evaluation device capable of determining the trustworthiness of computer programs executing on the devices. At least one trust indicator is also connected to the hardware trust evaluation device for providing an external indication of the trustworthiness of a computer program. Additional security information regarding the trustworthiness of the computer program may be displayed on the primary display device of the computing device. The display of the security information is triggered by a user of the computing device submitting a request through a secure mechanism, where the request is unobservable and inaccessible to programs executing on the computing device. Additional secure mechanisms, such as a unique user interface for displaying the security information, can be utilized to ensure the authenticity of the displayed security information.
