Abstract:
In accordance with some embodiments, a protected execution environment may be defined for a graphics processing unit. This framework not only protects the workloads from malware running on the graphics processing unit but also protects those workloads from malware running on the central processing unit. In addition, the trust framework may facilitate proof of secure execution by measuring the code and data structures used to execute the workload. If a part of the trusted computing base of this framework or protected execution environment is compromised, that part can be patched remotely and the patching can be proven remotely throughout attestation in some embodiments.
Abstract:
Generally, this disclosure provides systems, devices, methods and computer readable media for virtualization-based intra-block workload isolation. The system may include a virtual machine manager (VMM) module to create a secure virtualization environment or sandbox. The system may also include a processor block to load data into a first region of the sandbox and to generate a workload package based on the data. The workload package is stored in a second region of the sandbox. The system may further include an operational block to fetch and execute instructions from the workload package.
Abstract:
Embodiments of an invention for an interface between a device and a secure processing environment are disclosed. In one embodiment, a system includes a processor, a device, and an interface plug-in. The processor includes an instruction unit and an execution unit. The instruction unit is to receive an instruction to create a secure processing environment. The execution unit is to execute an application in the secure processing environment. The device is to execute a workload for the application. The interface plug-in is to provide an interface for the device to enter the secure processing environment to execute the workload.
Abstract:
Various embodiments are generally directed an apparatus and method for processing an encrypted graphic with a decryption key associated with a depth order policy including a depth position of a display scene, generating a graphic from the encrypted graphic when the encrypted graphic is successfully decrypted using the decryption key and assigning the graphic to a plane at the depth position of the display scene when the encrypted graphic is successfully decrypted.
Abstract:
The entry/exit architecture may be a critical component of a protection framework using a secure enclaves-like trust framework for coprocessors. The entry/exit architecture describes steps that may be used to switch securely into a trusted execution environment (entry architecture) and out of the trusted execution environment (exit architecture), at the same time preventing any secure information from leaking to an untrusted environment.

Abstract:
Technologies for secure input and display of a virtual touch user interface include a computing device having a security monitor that may protect memory regions from being accessed by untrusted code. The security monitor may use hardware virtualization features such as extended page tables or directed I/O to protect the memory regions. A protected touch filter driver intercepts requests for touch input and allocates a transfer buffer. The transfer buffer is protected by the security monitor. A touch screen controller may write touch input data into the protected transfer buffer. The touch input data may be shared by the touch filter driver with authorized applications through a protected communication channel. A graphical virtual user interface may be generated by trusted code and rendered into a hardware overlay surface. The user interface may include a virtual keyboard. The security monitor may protect the overlay surface. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
Abstract:
A device and method for securely rendering content on a gesture-enabled computing device includes initializing a secure execution environment on a processor graphics of the computing device. The computing device transfers view rendering code and associated state data to the secure execution environment. An initial view of the content is rendered by executing the view rendering code in the secure execution environment. A gesture is recognized, and an updated view of the content is rendered in the secure execution environment in response to the gesture. The gesture may include a touch gesture recognized on a touch screen, or a physical gesture of the user recognized by a camera. After the updated view of the content is rendered, the main processor of the computing device may receive updated view data from the secure execution environment.
Abstract:
A data processing system (DPS) includes a user authentication module that uses a hand recognition module and a gesture recognition module to authenticate users, based on video data from a two-dimensional (2D) camera. When executed, the hand recognition module performs operations comprising (a) obtaining 2D video data of a hand of the current user; and (b) automatically determining whether the hand of the current user matches the hand of an authorized user, based on the 2D video data. When executed, the gesture recognition module performs operations comprising (a) presenting a gesture challenge to the current user, wherein the gesture challenge asks the current user to perform a predetermined hand gesture; (b) obtaining 2D video response data; and (c) automatically determining whether the current user has performed the predetermined hand gesture, based on the 2D video response data. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
