Abstract :
In the increasingly digital world, enterprises are generating more data than ever before. Additionally, data storage plays more and more essential role in today´s fast-growing network services. However at the same time, data are easily exposed to a wider range of potential security and integrity threats. In this paper, based on the notable Trusted Platform Module (TPM) specification, we propose a new object oriented property approach for trusted storage environment. Our approaches verify the storage property that only related with the storage provider´s storage QoS. With our designed property functions, the storage properties can easily be updated or managed. To enhance the security of storage property itself, we propose and implement a property encryption loadable module in Linux kernel level. The Experiment results show that our approaches can achieve acceptable and reasonable performance in terms of storage service speedup and efficiency.
