Abstract
Every somewhat complex computer system contains bugs. As it is nearly impossible to fix all bugs in the software stack, the only alternative remains is to make the system secure accepting the fact that software is vulnerable. In this work, a hardware monitor is proposed that checks the correctness of program execution using chained signatures.
