This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Trust and Trustworthy Computing, TRUST 2011, held in Pittsburgh, PA, USA in June 2011. The 23 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in the book. The papers are organized in technical sessions on cloud and virtualization, physically unclonable functions, mobile device security, socio-economic aspects of trust, hardware trust, access control, privacy, trust aspects of routing, and cryptophysical protocols.

Trusting a computer for a security-sensitive task (such as checking email or banking online) requires the user to know something about the computer's state. We examine research on securely capturing a computer's state, and consider the utility of this information both for improving security on the local computer (e.g., to convince the user that her computer is not infected with malware) and for communicating a remote computer's state (e.g., to enable the user to check that a web server will adequately protect her data). Although the recent "Trusted Computing" initiative has drawn both...

This brief considers the various stakeholders in today's mobile device ecosystem, and analyzes why widely-deployed hardware security primitives on mobile device platforms are inaccessible to application developers and end-users. Existing proposals are also evaluated for leveraging such primitives, and proves that they can indeed strengthen the security properties available to applications and users, without reducing the properties currently enjoyed by OEMs and network carriers. Finally, this brief makes recommendations for future research that may yield practical and deployable results.
