Automatic managing system and method for integrity reference manifest

Abstract

The present invention relates to a system for automatically managing integrity reference information and a method of managing the same. The system includes one or more systems, a system management server, and an integrity management server. The systems are connected over a network and communication with each other. Each of the systems has an integrity measurement program to generate integrity information. The system management server has registration information about each of the systems connected over the network and registration information about a program distributed to each of the systems. Further, the system management server controls network access by each of the systems. If integrity reference information matching integrity information provided from a specific system does not exist in pieces of integrity reference information for verifying integrity of each of the systems, the integrity management server determines whether to register the integrity information as integrity reference information of the specific system depending on whether the specific system has been registered with the system management server.
