In one embodiment, a processor can enforce a blacklist and validate, according to a multi-phase lockstep integrity protocol, a device coupled to the processor. Such enforcement may prevent the device from accessing one or more resources of a system prior to the validation. The blacklist may include a list of devices that have not been validated according to the multi-phase lockstep integrity protocol. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

An antivirus (AV) application specifies a fault handler code image, a fault handler manifest, a memory location of the AV application, and an AV application manifest. A loader verifies the fault handler code image and the fault handler manifest, creates a first security domain having a first security level, copies the fault handler code image to memory associated with the first security domain, and initiates execution of the fault handler. The loader requests the locking of memory pages in the guest OS that are reserved for the AV application. The fault handler locks the executable code image of the AV application loaded into guest OS memory by setting traps on selected code segments in guest OS memory.

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:
A processing system with a trusted platform module (TPM) supports migration of digital keys. For instance, an application in the processing system may create a first configuration key as a child of a TPM storage root key (SRK) when the processing system has a first configuration. The application may also create an upgradable root user key associated with an upgrade authority as a child of the first configuration key. The application may also create a user key as a child of the upgradable root user key. When the processing system has a second configuration, the application may create a second configuration key as a child of the SRK. The application may request migration approval from the upgrade authority. In response to receiving the approval from the upgrade authority, the application may migrate the root user key to be a child of the second configuration key. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

In one embodiment, a method includes determining a location of a system responsive to location information received from at least one of a location sensor and a wireless device of the system, associating the location with a key present in the system to generate an authenticated location of the system, and determining whether the authenticated location is within a geofence boundary indicated in a location portion of a launch control policy (LCP) that provides a geographic-specific policy. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

摘要:
The present subject matter related to trusted computing, and more particularly, to virtual trusted platform module keys rooted in a hardware trusted platform module. Some embodiments include a trusted platform virtualization module operable to capture virtual machine trusted platform module calls and operates to generate, maintain, and utilize hardware trusted platform module keys on behalf of the one or more virtual machines. Some embodiments include virtual trusted platform module keys having a public portion on top of an private portion including an encrypted hardware trusted platform module key.
摘要:
A data processing system features a hardware trusted platform module (TPM), and a virtual TPM (vTPM) manager. When executed, the vTPM manager detects a first request from a service virtual machine (VM) in the processing system, the first request to involve access to the hardware TPM (hTPM). In response, the vTPM manager automatically determines whether the first request should be allowed, based on filter rules identifying allowed or disallowed operations for the hTPM. The vTPM manager may also detect a second request to involve access to a software TPM (sTPM) in the processing system. In response, the vTPM manager may automatically determine whether the second request should be allowed, based on a second filter list identifying allowed or disallowed operations for the sTPM. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
