Abstract:
A mechanism is described for facilitating proxy user interface-based remote management and control of computing devices according to one embodiment of the invention. A method of embodiments of the invention includes remotely pairing a first device with a second device, and remotely controlling the second device via a user interface provided at the first device. The user interface may serve as a proxy user interface at the first device for remotely controlling the second device. The first device may include a first computing device, and wherein the second device may include a second computing device or a second non-computing device.
Abstract:
Generally, this disclosure describes devices, methods and systems and for securely updating software on a mobile platform using trusted hardware based authentication. The device may include an image update module configured to receive a software update image from an update server, the image update module executing at an operating system (OS) level; a critical component database configured to identify critical software components associated with the secure operation of the device; a secure update application module configured to verify the inclusion of the critical software components in the software update image prior to installation of the software update image on the device; and a trusted execution environment (TEE) configured to restrict control access and data access to the secure update application module and the critical component database, the restriction enforced against the OS and against modules executing at the OS level.
