However, BA only supports the attestation for specific patterns of binary codes defined by a trusted party, mostly the software vendor, for a particular version of a software. In this paper, we present a Source-Code Oriented Attestation (SCOA) framework to enable custom built application to be attested to in the TCG attestation architecture. In SCOA, security attributes are bond with the source codes of an application instead of its binaries codes. With a proof chain generated by a Trusted Building System to record the building procedure, the challengers can determine whether the binary interacted with is genuinely built from a particular set of source codes.
