    Abstract: Technologies for end-to-end biometric-based authentication and locality assertion include a computing device with one or more biometric devices. The computing device may securely exchange a key between a driver and a secure enclave. The driver may receive biometric data from the biometric sensor in a virtualization-protected memory buffer and encrypt the biometric data with the shared key. The secure enclave may decrypt the biometric data and perform a biometric authentication operation. The computing device may measure a virtual machine monitor (VMM) to generate attestation information for the VMM. A secure enclave may execute a virtualization report instruction to request the attestation information. The processor may copy the attestation information into the secure enclave memory. The secure enclave may verify the attestation information with a remote attestation server. If verified, the secure enclave may provide a shared secret to the VMM. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

    Abstract: Technologies for sensor privacy on a computing device include receiving, by a sensor controller of the computing device, sensor data from a sensor of the computing device; determining a sensor mode for the sensor; and sending privacy data in place of the sensor data in response to a determination that the sensor mode for the sensor is set to a private mode. The technologies may also include receiving, by a security engine of the computing device, a sensor mode change command from a user of the computing device via a trusted input/output path of the computing device; and sending a mode command to the sensor controller to set the sensor mode of the sensor based on the sensor mode change command, wherein the sending the mode command comprises sending the mode command over a private bus established between the security engine and the sensor controller. Other embodiments are described herein.

    Abstract: According to an embodiment of the invention, a method for operating a data processing machine is described in which data about a state of the machine is written to a location in storage. The location is one that is accessible to software that may be written for the machine. The state data as written is encoded. This state data may be recovered from the storage according to a decoding process. Other embodiments are also described and claimed.

    Abstract: A virtual environment manager (“VEM”) simplifies the usability of virtual machines and provides users with an enhanced design for creating and/or for managing virtual machines (“VMs”). For example, a user can select description information and management information to be included in descriptors and according to which a VEM will create and manage various VM environments for various host environments. The VEM automatically creates the VM environments and host environments by sending descriptor description information and data files associated with the description information to virtual machine monitors (VMMs), which create the VM environments according to the description information. A VEM at each host may manage VM environments executed by the VMM, according to the descriptor management information. Thus, a set of descriptors to create and manage a set of VMs for a home computer may be easily modified by a user to create and manage a set of VMs for a work or laptop computer.

    Abstract: A method for unifying VMs comprises presenting, in a display device, a unified view that includes GUI elements for multiple applications that execute in respective VMs in a computing device. The operation of presenting the unified view may be performed by a unification console that executes in a dedicated VM. The method also comprises (a) after presenting the unified view, receiving, by the unification console, user input pertaining to a selected application; (b) redirecting the user input from the unification console in the dedicated VM to the selected application in its respective VM; (c) receiving, by the unification console outside of the VM for the selected application, application output from the selected application; and (d) rendering output for a user, based on the application output received by the unification console. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

    Abstract: Sensor data may be filtered in a secure environment. The filtering may limit distribution of the sensor data. Filtering may modify the sensor data, for example, to prevent identification of a person depicted in a captured image or to prevent acquiring a user's precise location. Filtering may also add or require other data use controls to access the data. Attestation that a filter policy is being applied and working properly or not may be provided as well.
