Title

Root of Trust for Recovery (RTRec) and Chain of Trust for Recovery (CTRec)

Control

1) Each platform device which implements a recovery capability shall rely on either a Root of Trust for Recovery (RTRec), or a Chain of Trust for Recovery (CTRec) which is anchored by an RTRec, for its recovery. 2) The RTRec or the CTRec shall perform the recovery. Note: RTR was not chosen as the acronym for Root of Trust for Recovery because RTR is typically used to denote Root of Trust for Reporting. As such, throughout this document we will disambiguate RTR by using RTRec to denote Root of Trust for Recovery.
