You must make prompt adjustment to compensate for any errors and/or omissions disclosed by such examination or audit.
EXHIBIT A: Robustness Requirements
Definitions:
Probing point : Standard connections/sockets accessible from outside or from inside the receiving device.
Non encrypted content : Content that was protected by Google’s DRM and that has been decrypted.
User accessible buses : Refer to buses such as PCI buses and serial links. User accessible buses exclude memory buses, CPU buses and portions of the receiving Device’s internal architecture.
Boot Loader: Software that ensures the download of the receiving device firmware.
You will make commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that your Authorized System is designed and manufactured to comply with the following security robustness requirements. The level of protection is expected to be reached in a reasonable way and so that:
1. Protections cannot be defeated or circumvented using general purpose tools or equipment such as screwdrivers, clips or soldering irons or using specialized electronic tools such as debuggers or decompilers.
2. Protections can only with difficulty be defeated or circumvented using professional tools or equipment such as logic analyzers, chip disassembly system or in circuit-emulators.
3. An update mechanism shall be present to enable recovery from a global hack.
Requirements:
1. Your Authorized System will not expose any mechanism through probing points, service menus or functions that will enable somebody to defeat or expose any of the implemented security measures.
2. Your Authorized System will have a secure Boot-Loader that cannot be read or written to from outside of your Authorized System
3. All code loaded by the Boot-Loader shall first be authenticated by the Boot-Loader.
4. Internal keys and decrypted content willl not be present on any user accessible bus.
5. Your Authorized System will implement tamper resistant key protection.
6. Your Authorized System will be designed and manufactured with one or more unique parameters stored in read-only memory.
7. Your Authorized System will protect against the external revealing or discovery of the Google’s DRM unique parameters that are used to uniquely identify your Authorized System.
8. Your Authorized System will protect against any attempt to discover and reveal the methods and algorithms of generating keys.
9. Non-encrypted content shall not be present on any user accessible buses.
10. The flow of non-encrypted content and keys between both software and hardware distributed components in your Authorized System will be protected from interception and copying.
11. Software shall perform self checking functions to detect unauthorized modification.
12. Your Authorized System will protect against the disabling of output protections.
13. Any unauthorized modification of any of the software functions involved in the security implementation shall result in the failure of the decryption process.
14. Your Authorized System hardware components should be designed in such a way that prevents attempts to reprogram, remove or replace any of the hardware components involved in the security solution on your Authorized System.
15. Reprogramming, removal or replacement of any of the hardware components involved in the security solution of your Authorized System will result in the failure of the decryption process.
16. Google keyboxes shall be factory provisioned by Licensee enabling a hardware root of trust.
17. Non-encrypted content shall only be delivered to outputs that are protected by a trusted protection system. Trusted protection systems include Macrovision, CGMS-A, HDCP and DTCP-IP. Triggering APIs shall be exposed to the Google DRM.
