    Abstract: Various approaches for implementing attestation using an attestation token are described. In an edge computing system deployment, an edge computing device includes an attestable feature (e.g., resource, service, entity, property, etc.) which is accessible from use of an attestation token, by the operations of: obtaining a first instance of a token that provides proof of attestation for an accessible feature of the edge computing device, with the token including data to indicate trust level designations for the feature as attested by an attestation provider; receiving, from a prospective user of the feature, a request to use the feature and a second instance of the token, with the second instance of the token originating from the attestation provider; and providing access to the feature based on a verification of the instances of the token, by using the verification to confirm attestation of the trust level designations for the feature.

    Abstract: Technologies for accelerated key caching in an edge hierarchy include multiple edge appliance devices organized in tiers. An edge appliance device receives a request for a key, such as a private key. The edge appliance device determines whether the key is included in a local key cache and, if not, requests the key from an edge appliance device included in an inner tier of the edge hierarchy. The edge appliance device may request the key from an edge appliance device included in a peer tier of the edge hierarchy. The edge appliance device may activate per-tenant accelerated logic to identify one or more keys in the key cache for eviction. The edge appliance device may activate per-tenant accelerated logic to identify one or more keys for pre-fetching. Those functions of the edge appliance device may be performed by an accelerator such as an FPGA. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

    Abstract: Techniques and apparatuses for processing data unit are described. In one embodiment, for example, an apparatus for networking may include at least one memory, logic, at least a portion of the logic comprised in hardware coupled to the at least one memory, the logic to access an encrypted packet having an encrypted portion, determine at least one flow control segment of the encrypted portion, decrypt the at least one flow control segment to generate a partially-decrypted packet comprising a decrypted at least one flow control segment and an encrypted remainder portion, the remainder portion comprising a portion of the encrypted packet that does not include the decrypted at least one flow control segment, access process information in the decrypted at least one flow control segment, and process the partially-decrypted packet according to the process information. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a system comprises a network interface controller to determine context information associated with a data packet. The network interface controller may select a receive descriptor profile from a plurality of receive descriptor profiles based upon a first portion of the context information and build a receive descriptor for the data packet based upon a second portion of the context information and the selected receive descriptor profile.
