摘要： An apparatus is provided that includes a dedicated appliance operable to interface with a computing platform. A provisioning process may be initiated such that the dedicated appliance responds by monitoring a port for a connection request from the computing platform. Upon receiving the connection request the dedicated appliance completing a connection and generates a random numeric or an alphanumeric string, the dedicated appliance calculating a key derived from the random numeric string or the alphanumeric string using a key derivation process. The dedicated appliance waits for the credential packet from the computing platform before establishing a secure connection between the dedicated appliance and the computing platform.

摘要： A device specific key is generated within an electronic device by providing a challenge to a physically unclonable function (PUF) structure integrated within the electronic device, where the PUF structure outputs a specific response based upon a specific challenge provided to the PUF structure. The PUF response is provided to a cryptographic module integrated within the electronic device, and a device specific key is generated by the cryptographic module utilizing a cryptographic key generation algorithm. The device specific key is generated based upon a combination of input data including the PUF response and data that is specific to the electronic device.

摘要： An example method is provided and includes providing an encrypted image to a central processing unit of an integrated circuit and decrypting the encrypted image using a cryptographic key element. The cryptographic key element is embedded within the integrated circuit. The method also includes evaluating the decrypted image in order to verify its authenticity, and executing the decrypted image if the decrypted image is successfully verified. In more particular embodiments, the verification includes utilizing an executable and linkable format (ELF) to signify that encryption has been enabled for at least a portion of the encrypted image. A processor within the integrated circuit can be provided with the cryptographic key element that corresponds to a product family of devices. The method can also include providing a corresponding image of the decrypted image to an external memory of the integrated circuit.

摘要： A method is provided for establishing a telephone call between a trusted Internet Protocol (IP) telephone and an untrusted device. The method includes receiving a call initiation request from the untrusted device that indicates a desired communication with the trusted IP telephone. The method evaluates the call initiation request, and establishes a telecommunication link between the untrusted device and the trusted IP telephone in response to a positive evaluation of the call initiation request.
