TEEI - A Mobile Security Infrastructure for TEE Integration

Mobile security becomes a hot topic recently, especially in mobile payment and privacy data fields. Traditional solution can´t keep a good balance between convenience and security. Against this background, a dual OS security solution named Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) is proposed and implemented by many institutions and companies. However, it raised TEE fragmentation and control problem. Addressing this issue, a mobile security infrastructure named Trusted Execution Environment Integration (TEEI) is presented to integrate multiple different TEEs. By using Trusted Virtual Machine (TVM) tech-nology, TEEI allows multiple TEEs running on one secure world on one mobile device at the same time and isolates them safely. Furthermore, a Virtual Network protocol is proposed to enable communication and cooperation among TEEs which includes TEE on TVM and TEE on SE. At last, a SOA-like Internal Trusted Service (ITS) framework is given to facilitate the development and maintenance of TEEs.
