Abstract

We discuss the problem of a secure login to a virtualized workstation. For increased security, the workstation’s hard drive is encrypted. During the startup, a decryption password to the drive must be entered by a user. We propose a solution that involves mutual authentication between the workstation and the user and ensures the password may be entered securely.
