9、 International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees es

10、tablished by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work. In

11、the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of the joint technical committee is to prepare International Standards

12、. Draft International Standards adopted by the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the national bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of

14、- 147, BIOS Protection Guidelines. NIST SP 800-147 was reformatted in accordance with ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2, while maintaining the technical content of the NIST publication (available at http:/csrc.nist.gov/publications/nistpubs/800-147/NIST-SP800-147-April2011.pdf). The resulting standard was

15、adopted under a special “fast-track procedure”, by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1, Information technology, in parallel with its approval by the national bodies of ISO and IEC. ISO/IEC 2015 All rights reserved BS ISO/IEC 19678:2015 ISO/IEC 19678:2015(E)Introduction Modern computers rely on f

16、undamental system firmware, commonly known as the system Basic Input/Output System (BIOS), to facilitate the hardware initialization process and transition control to the operating system. The BIOS is typically developed by both original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and independent BIOS vendors, a

17、nd is distributed to end-users by motherboard or computer manufacturers. Manufacturers frequently update system firmware to fix bugs, patch vulnerabilities, and support new hardware. This International Standard provides security requirements and guidance for preventing the unauthorized modification

18、of BIOS firmware on PC client systems. Unauthorized modification of BIOS firmware by malicious software constitutes a significant threat because of the BIOSs unique and privileged position within the PC architecture. A malicious BIOS modification could be part of a sophisticated, targeted attack on

19、an organizationeither a permanent denial of service (if the BIOS is corrupted) or a persistent malware presence (if the BIOS is implanted with malware). The move from conventional BIOS implementations to implementations based on the Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) may make it easier for

20、 malware to target the BIOS in a widespread fashion, as these BIOS implementations are based on a common specification. This International Standard focuses on current and future x86 and x64 desktop and laptop systems, although the controls and procedures could potentially apply to any system design.

21、 Likewise, although the guide is oriented toward enterprise-class platforms, the necessary technologies are expected to migrate to consumer- grade systems over time. The security requirements do not attempt to prevent installation of unauthentic BIOSs through the supply chain, by physical replacemen

22、t of the BIOS chip, or through secure local update procedures. The intended audience for this International Standard includes BIOS and platform vendors, and information system security professionals who are responsible for managing the endpoint platforms security, secure boot processes, and hardware

23、 security modules. The material may also be of use when developing enterprise- wide procurement strategies and deployment. The material in this International Standard is technically oriented, and it is assumed that readers have at least a basic understanding of system and network security. The Inter

24、national Standard provides background information to help such readers understand the topics that are discussed. Readers are encouraged to take advantage of other resources (including those listed in this International Standard) for more detailed information. ISO/IEC 2015 All rights reserved BS ISO/

A malicious BIOS modification could be part of a sophisticated, targeted attack on an organization either a

27、permanent denial of service (if the BIOS is corrupted) or a persistent malware presence (if the BIOS is implanted with malware). As used in this publication, the term BIOS refers to conventional BIOS, Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI) BIOS, and Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) BIOS. Th

28、is International Standard applies to system BIOS firmware (e.g., conventional BIOS or UEFI BIOS) stored in the system flash memory of computer systems, including portions that may be formatted as Option ROMs. However, it does not apply to Option ROMs, UEFI drivers, and firmware stored elsewhere in a

29、 computer system. Subclause 7.2 provides platform vendors with requirements for a secure BIOS update process. Additionally, subclause 7.3 provides guidelines for managing the BIOS in an operational environment. While this International Standard focuses on current and future x86 and x64 client platfo

30、rms, the controls and procedures are independent of any particular system design. 2 Conformance The following terms are used in this standard to indicate mandatory requirements, recommended options, or permissible actions. The terms “shall” and “shall not” indicate requirements to be followed strict

31、ly in order to conform to this standard and from which no deviation is permitted. The terms “should” and “should not” indicate that among several possibilities one is recommended as particularly suitable, without mentioning or excluding others, or that a certain course of action is preferred but not

32、 necessarily required, or that (in the negative form) a certain possibility or course of action is discouraged but not prohibited. The terms “may” and “need not” indicate a course of action permissible within the limits of this standard. An implementation is conformant to this standard if it impleme

47、d Extensible Firmware Interface 6 Background 6.1 System BIOS The system BIOS is the first piece of software executed on the main central processing unit (CPU) when a computer is powered on. While the system BIOS was originally responsible for providing operating systems access to hardware, its prima

48、ry role on modern machines is to initialize and test hardware components and load the operating system. In addition, the BIOS loads and initializes important system management functions, such as power and thermal management. The system BIOS may also load CPU microcode patches during the boot process

49、. There are several different types of BIOS firmware. Some computers use a 16-bit conventional BIOS, while many newer systems use boot firmware based on the UEFI specifications 23. In this International Standard we refer to all types of boot firmware as BIOS firmware, the system BIOS, or simply BIOS. When necessary, we differentiate conventional BIOS firmware from UEFI firmware by calling them the conventional BIOS and UEFI BIOS, respectively. System BIOS is typically developed by both original
