摘要:
A first processing system determines whether a second processing system provides a trustworthy state for supporting a virtual trusted platform module (TPM), based at least in part on an assertion made by a management authority. The first processing system also determines whether the management authority is trusted. The first processing system may transfer state for the virtual TPM to the second processing system only if (a) the management authority is trusted and (b) the assertion made by the management authority indicates that the second processing system provides a trustworthy environment for supporting the virtual TPM. In one embodiment, the first processing system transfers state for the virtual TPM to the second processing system only if a trust level designation for the second processing system is equal or greater than a trust level for the first processing system. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

A method and apparatus for binding trusted platform module (TPM) keys to execution entities are described. In one embodiment, the method includes the receipt of an authorization request issued by an execution entity for authorization data. According to the authorization request, the execution entity may be measured to generate an entity digest value. Once the entity digest value is generated, a platform reference module may grant the authorization request if the entity digest value verifies that the execution entity is an owner of the key held by the TPM. Accordingly, in one embodiment, a platform reference module, rather than an execution entity, holds the authorization data required by a TPM to use a key owned by the execution entity and held within sealed storage by the TPM. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

A method and system are disclosed. In one embodiment, the method includes invoking a run-time measurement agent (RTMA) to run on a trusted platform, the RTMA measuring a core system code block multiple times after a single boot on the trusted platform; and a trusted platform module storing these multiple measurements.

Methods and apparatus for extending packet processing to trusted programmable and fixed-function accelerators. Secure enclaves are created in system memory of a compute platform, wherein software code external from a secure enclave cannot access code or data within a secure enclave, and software code in a secure enclave can access code and data both within the secure enclave and external to the secure enclave. Software code for implementing packet processing operations is installed in the secure enclaves. The compute platform further includes one or more hardware-based accelerators that are used by the software to offload packet processing operations. The accelerators are configured to read packet data from input queues, process the data, and output processed data to output queues, wherein the input and output queues are located in encrypted portions of memory that may be in a secure enclave or external to the secure enclaves. Tokens are used by accelerators to validate access to memory in secure enclaves, and used by both accelerators and secure enclaves to access encrypted memory external to secure enclaves.

Systems and methods for secure delivery of output surface bitmaps to a display engine. An example processing system comprises: an architecturally protected memory; and a plurality of processing devices communicatively coupled to the architecturally protected memory, each processing device comprising a first processing logic to implement an architecturally-protected execution environment by performing at least one of: executing instructions residing in the architecturally protected memory, or preventing an unauthorized access to the architecturally protected memory; wherein each processing device further comprises a second processing logic to establish a secure communication channel with a second processing device of the processing system, employ the secure communication channel to synchronize a platform identity key representing the processing system, and transmit a platform manifest comprising the platform identity key to a certification system.

Technologies for trusted I/O attestation and verification include a computing device with a cryptographic engine and one or more I/O controllers. The computing device collects hardware attestation information associated with statically attached hardware I/O components that are associated with a trusted I/O usage protected by the cryptographic engine. The computing device verifies the hardware attestation information and securely enumerates one or more dynamically attached hardware components in response to verification. The computing device collects software attestation information for trusted software components loaded during secure enumeration. The computing device verifies the software attestation information. The computing device may collect firmware attestation information for firmware loaded in the I/O controllers and verify the firmware attestation information. The computing device may collect application attestation information for a trusted application that uses the trusted I/O usage and verify the application attestation information. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
摘要:
A data processing system supports remeasurement of a virtual machine monitor (VMM). In one example process, the VMM may obtain a secret value from a trusted platform module (TPM) of the processing system. The VMM may provide the secret value from the VMM to a measurement agent executing in system management mode (SMM) of the processing system. The measurement agent may be a system management interrupt (SMI) transfer monitor (STM) that can create virtual machines to execute in SMM, for example. However, the VMM may verify the measurement agent before providing the secret value to the measurement agent. The measurement agent may generate a remeasurement value for the VMM, use the secret value that was obtained from the TPM to certify the remeasurement value, and communicate the remeasurement value to a requesting program, via the VMM. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
