The availability of inexpensive portable storage devices has made it easier for users to carry data and programs with them and borrow computing platforms when needed. This article focuses on portable storage-based personalization, in which users boot the borrowed PC from their portable storage devices. It analyzes this model's security implications and present a scheme to protect the portable storage device from untrusted platforms. The protection scheme includes running tests stored on the portable storage device to assess the borrowed platform's integrity and ensuring that these tests execute without tampering. This article is part of a special issue on security and privacy.
