摘要:
A manageability engine (ME) receives an authentication response from a user during pre-boot authentication and registers the user with a key distribution center (KDC), indicating that the user has successfully authenticated to the PC. The KDC supplies the ME with single-sign-on credentials in the form of a Key Encryption Key (KEK). The KEK may later be used by the PC to obtain a credential used to establish secure access to Enterprise servers.

In one embodiment, a processor includes a microcode storage including processor instructions to create and execute a hidden resource manager (HRM) to execute in a hidden environment that is not visible to system software. The processor may further include an extend register to store security information including a measurement of at least one kernel code module of the hidden environment and a status of a verification of the at least one kernel code module. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

摘要:
An opportunity for a computing device to participate in a secure session with a particular domain is identified. A domain identifier of the particular domain is received and a secured microcontroller of the computing device is used to identify a secured, persistent hardware identifier of the computing device stored in secured memory of the computing device. A secure identifier is derived for a pairing of the computing device and the particular domain based on the hardware identifier and domain identifier of the particular domain and the secure identifier is transmitted over a secured channel to the particular domain. The particular domain can verify identity of the computing device from the secure identifier and apply security policies to transactions involving the computing device and the particular domain based at least in part on the secure identifier.

Active management technology (AMT) may be provisioned in a client device automatically, which may provide a secure connection between the provisioning server and the client device. The client device comprising the active management technology may support zero-touch provisioning and one-touch provisioning.

There is disclosed in one example, a system-on-a-chip (SoC), including: a processor core; a fabric; an intellectual property (IP) block communicatively coupled to the processor core via the fabric, the IP block having a microcontroller configured to provide a microcontroller architecture; a firmware load interface configured to provide a standardized hardware interface to the microcontroller architecture, wherein the standardized hardware interface provides an architecture-agnostic mechanism to securely load a firmware to the intellectual property block; and logic to provide a loader to load a firmware to the IP block via the firmware load interface.
摘要:
Embodiments of techniques and systems for out-of-band verification of host OS components are described. In embodiments, a out-of-band host OS boot sequence verification system (“BSVS”) may access system memory without detection by a host OS process, or “out of band.” The BSVS may access host OS components in the system memory and may generate signatures from memory footprints of the host OS components. These signatures may then be compared to trusted signatures to verify integrity of the host OS components. In embodiments, this verification may be performed during a boot of a host OS or on demand. In embodiments, the trusted signatures may be pre-stored by the BSVS before a boot; in some embodiments, the trusted signatures may be previously-computed and then stored by the BSVS. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.
摘要:
An opportunity for a computing device to participate in a secure session with a particular domain is identified. A secured microcontroller of the computing device is used to identify a secured, persistent seed corresponding to the particular domain and stored in secured memory of the computing device. A secure identifier is derived based on the seed and sent for use by the particular domain in authenticating the computing device to the particular domain for the secure session. The particular domain can further apply security policies to transactions involving the computing device and particular domain based at least in part on the secure identifier.
摘要:
Systems and methods may provide implementing one or more device locking procedures to block access to a device. In one example, the method may include receiving an indication that a user is no longer present, initiating a timing mechanism to set a period to issue a first device lock instruction to lock a peripheral device, relaying timing information from the timing mechanism to a controller module associated with the peripheral device; and locking the peripheral device upon expiration of the period.
