Embodiments of an invention for fuse attestation to secure the provisioning of secret keys during integrated circuit manufacturing are disclosed. In one embodiment, an apparatus includes a storage location, a physically unclonable function (PUF) circuit, a PUF key generator, an encryption unit, and a plurality of fuses. The storage location is to store a configuration fuse value. The PUF circuit is to provide a PUF value. The PUF key generator is to generate a PUF key based on the PUF value. The encryption unit is to encrypt the configuration fuse value using the PUF key. The PUF key and the configuration fuse value are to be provided to a key server. The key server is to determine that the configuration fuse value indicates that the apparatus is a production component, and, in response, provide a fuse key to be stored in the plurality of fuses.

At least one machine accessible medium having instructions stored thereon for authenticating a hardware device is provided. When executed by a processor, the instructions cause the processor to receive two or more device keys from a physically unclonable function (PUF) on the hardware device, generate a device identifier from the two or more device keys, obtain a device certificate from the hardware device, perform a verification of the device identifier, and provide a result of the device identifier verification. In a more specific embodiment, the instructions cause the processor to perform a verification of a digital signature in the device certificate and to provide a result of the digital signature verification. The hardware device may be rejected if at least one of the device identifier verification and the digital signature verification fails.

A Direct Anonymous Attestation (DAA) scheme using elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) and bilinear maps. A trusted platform module (TPM) may maintain privacy of a portion of a private membership key from an issuer while joining a group. Moreover, the TPM can outsource most of the computation involved in generating a signature to a host computer.

Some implementations disclosed herein provide techniques and arrangements for provisioning keys to integrated circuits/processors. A processor may include physically unclonable functions component, which may generate a unique hardware key based at least on at least one physical characteristic of the processor. The hardware key may be employed in encrypting a key such as a secret key. The encrypted key may be stored in a memory of the processor. The encrypted key may be validated. The integrity of the key may be protected by communicatively isolating at least one component of the processor.

Various embodiments are generally directed to hardening the performance of calculations of a digital signature system for authenticating computing devices against side-channel attacks. An apparatus comprises a processor circuit and an interface operative to communicatively couple the processor circuit to a network; a storage communicatively coupled to the processor circuit and arranged to store instructions operative on the processor circuit to digitally sign a message to create a first signature using a modular arithmetic operation arranged to compensate for a value of a variable greater than a modulus without use of a branching instruction; and transmit the first signature to a verifying server via the network. Other embodiments are described and claimed herein.
