摘要:
This disclosure is directed to a context-aware proactive threat management system. In general, a device may use internal activity data along with data about external activities (e.g., provided by remote resources) for threat assessment and mitigation. A device may comprise, for example, a hostile environment detection (HED) module to coordinate threat assessment and mitigation. The HED module may accumulate internal activity data (e.g., from security services in the device), and external activity data regarding a system environment and/or a physical environment from the remote resources. The HED module may then assess threats based on the activity data and determine automated and/or manual mitigation operations to respond to the threats. In one embodiment, visualization features may also be used to, for example, visualize threats to a user, visualize automatic/manual mitigation operations, request user confirmation regarding the performance of manual mitigation operations, etc.

A mechanism is described for facilitating context-based access control of resources for according to one embodiment. A method of embodiments, as described herein, includes receiving a first request to access a resource of a plurality of resources. The first request may be associated with one or more contexts corresponding to a user placing the first request at a computing device. The method may further include evaluating the one or more contexts. The evaluation of the one or more contexts may include matching the one or more contexts with one or more access policies associated with the requested resource. The method may further include accepting the first request if the one or more contexts satisfy at least one of the access policies.
摘要:
Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed to initialize a platform. An example disclosed apparatus includes a boot loader manager to prevent operating system loading in response to detecting a power-on condition, a context manager to retrieve first context information associated with the platform, and a policy manager to identify a first operating system based on the first context information, the policy manager to authorize the boot loader manager to load the first operating system.
摘要:
In an embodiment, an apparatus includes a security engine to operate in a trusted execution environment to perform security operations and to authenticate a user of the apparatus, and a pairing logic to receive an indication of discovery of a peer device and to determine whether the user of the apparatus corresponds to a user of the peer device, and if so to enable a pairing with the peer device according to a first security ring if the correspondence is determined, and to enable the pairing with the peer device according to a second security ring if no correspondence is detected and the user of the apparatus is authenticated. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
摘要:
The techniques described herein include configuration of channels between devices and service providers at a connectable system platform. For example, a system platform may include a receiver to receive data from a communicatively coupled device. The system platform may include a controller having logic, at least partially comprising hardware logic, to configure communications channels. The communication channels include a communication channel for transmission between the system platform and a service provider to receive the data, and a communication channel for transmission between the system platform and the coupled device. The communication channels are configured based on a context. The context comprises characteristics of the coupled device, content of the data, and security requirements associated with the service provider.
摘要:
Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed to facilitate multi-factor authentication policy enforcement using one or more policy handlers. An example first policy handler to manage a global policy in a distributed environment includes a parser to identify a first sub-policy of the global policy that is capable of enforcement by the first policy handler, and an attester to sign the first sub-policy. The example first policy handler further includes a director to determine whether to forward the global policy to a second policy handler based on a signature status of the global policy, and to forward the global policy to the second policy handler when the signature status of the global policy is indicative of an unsigned second sub-policy.
摘要:
A computing device is described. The computing device includes input/output (I/O) circuitry to receive sensory data and a trusted execution environment to monitor the I/O circuitry to detect one or more context characteristics of the computing device and to authenticate user identity based on context characteristics.
摘要:
In accordance with embodiments disclosed herein, there are provided systems, apparatuses, and methods for implementing secure remediation of devices requesting cloud services. For example, in one embodiment, such means may include means for receiving, at a services provider, a request for services from a client; means for requesting authentication from the client to verify the client is one of a plurality of known subscribers of the services; means for requesting attestation to verify compliance of the client with a policy specified by the services provider; means for receiving an attestation confirmation from an attestation verifier, the attestation confirmation verifying compliance of the client with the policy specified by the services provider; and means for granting the client access to the services requested.
