    摘要: An apparatus for securely backing up data using a cryptographic module includes a mass storage device having a first accessible portion and a second encrypted portion. The mass storage device is initialized to only decrypt the encrypted portion on the system that first created the encrypted portion. The cryptographic module may be a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) based on specifications from the Trusted Computer Group. The mass storage device comprises a trusted platform interface module configured to communicate with the TPM. The system may include a motherboard having a TPM, and the mass storage device. The method in one embodiment comprises providing a computer readable mass storage device, initializing a password module, transmitting an encrypted password to the cryptographic module, authenticating the encrypted password, decrypting the encrypted password, transmitting the decrypted password to the computer readable medium, and decrypting the second encrypted portion using the decrypted password.

    摘要: A system, method, and program product is provided that initializes expected PCRs stored in a TPM by generating and storing a random number, seeding expected PCRs with the random number, inputting a set of startup code processes to a hash algorithm resulting in a set of hash values, updating the expected PCRs using the set of hash values, and saving the expected PCRs in a nonvolatile data area that is secured by the TPM. Upon reboot, the random number is retrieved from the nonvolatile data area, the PCRs are seeded with the retrieved random number, the startup code processes are input to the hash algorithm process resulting in another set of hash values, the PCRs are updated using the resulting set of hash values, and an encrypted data object is decrypted in response to the PCRs being the same as the expected PCRs.

    摘要: A system and method for autonomic extensions to wake on LAN are presented. An access point detects wake on LAN (WOL) requests that are targeted for unassociated clients. When the access point detects a WOL request for an unassociated client, the access point stores the WOL request in a table for a predefined amount of time. A client queries the access point periodically to see if the access point is storing a WOL request which is targeted for the client. When the access point receives the query, the access point compares the client's identifier, such as its MAC address, with targeted client identifiers corresponding to pending WOL requests. When the access point detects a match, the access point sends the WOL request to the client for the client to process.

    摘要: A system, method, and program product is provided that initializes a counter maintained in a nonvolatile memory of a security module to an initialization value. The security module receives requests for a secret from requesters. The security module releases the secret to the requesters and the released secrets are stored in memory areas allocated to the requesters. A counter is incremented when the secret is released. Requestors send notifications to the security module indicating that the requestor has removed the secret from the requestor's memory area. The security module decrements the counter each time a notification is received. When the computer system is rebooted, if the counter is not at the initialization value, the system memory is scrubbed erasing any secrets that remain in memory.

    摘要: A system, method, and program product is provided that initializes a computer system using an initialization process that identifies secrets that were stored in memory and not scrubbed during a prior use of the computer system. During the initialization process, one or more secret indicators are retrieved that identify whether one or more secrets were scrubbed from the computer system's memory during a previous use of the computer system. If the secret indicators show that one or more secrets were not scrubbed from the memory during the prior use of the computer system, then the initialization process scrubs the memory. On the other hand, if the secret indicators show that each of the secrets was scrubbed from the memory during the prior use of the computer system, then the memory is not scrubbed during the initialization process.

    摘要: A system and method to avoid disk lube pooling is presented. A track access monitor tracks the number of times that a program accesses a particular track located on a hard drive. When the track access monitor determines that the number of track accesses to a particular track exceed a track access threshold, the track access monitor invokes a sequence of events to scan adjacent tracks in order to uniformly redistribute lubrication over the hard drive. In one embodiment, the track access monitor incrementally performs the adjacent track scanning during hard drive idle periods, such as when the system waits for a password from a user or when the operating system conserves power and idles the hard drive due to lack of activity.

    摘要: A system, method, and program product is provided that executes a hypervisor in order to control access to a rental computer system. The hypervisor performs steps that include: reading a rental metric from a nonvolatile storage area, comparing the rental metric with a rental limit, allowing use of one or more guest operating systems by a user of the computer system in response to the rental metric being within the rental limit, and inhibiting use of the guest operating systems by the user of the computer system in response to the rental metric exceeding the rental limit.
