Abstract
A device and a method for establishing a trusted path between a user interface and a software application to securely execute the software stored in a memory along the trusted path and offer the user's desired service are provided. Accordingly, the trusted path is established so that attackers can not invade a normal path between the user interface and software. Additionally, the device securely executes the original software which is not fabricated so that the user can receive desired services from the device.
