Zusammenfassung:METHOD FOR EXECUTING TRUSTED-PATH COMMANDS A method for executing trusted commands, in which a trusted command is first received from a user at a user terminal and parsed by untrusted code; then passed to a trusted computing base for execution. The trusted computing base displays back to the use for confirmation some indication of what is to be done back to the use for confirmation. Confirmation of the commands prevents unauthorized modification of the commands and increases system confidence. A randomly (or pseudo-randomly) generated process identifier is employed to verify the existence of a trusted path.
