| 20080244758 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR SECURE ASSOCIATION OF HARDWARD DEVICES - An apparatus to protect one or more hardware devices from unauthorized software access is described herein and comprises, in one embodiment, a virtual machine manager, a memory protection module and an integrity measurement manager. In a further embodiment, a method of providing secure access to one or more hardware devices may include, modifying a page table, verifying the integrity of a device driver, and providing memory protection to the device driver if the device driver is verified. | 10-02-2008 |
| 20100223457 | GENERATION AND/OR RECEPTION, AT LEAST IN PART, OF PACKET INCLUDING ENCRYPTED PAYLOAD - An embodiment may include circuitry to generate, at least in part, and/or receive, at least in part, a packet. The packet may include at least one field and an encrypted payload. The at least one field may include, at least in part, a first key and/or at least one value. The first key and at least one value, as included in the at least one field, may be encrypted by a second key. The encrypted payload may be capable of being decrypted, at least in part, based, at least in part, upon the first key and/or the at least one value to yield an unencrypted payload. The unencrypted payload may include at least a portion of application layer data that is to be communicated in a secure session. | 09-02-2010 |
| 20110078799 | Computer system and method with anti-malware - In some embodiments, approaches may provide an out-of-band (OOB) agent to protect a platform. The OOB agent may be able to use non-TRS methods to measure and protect an in-band security agent. In some embodiments, a manageability engine can provide out of band connectivity to the in-band and out-of-band security agents and provide access to the system memory resources without having to rely on OS services. This can be used for a trusted anti-malware and remediation service. | 03-31-2011 |
| 20110099591 | SECURE WIRELESS PAIRING OF DIGITAL TV SHORT-RANGE TRANSMITTER AND RECEIVER - Embodiments of wireless display of digital content include transmission using a television transmission standard, such as a set of standards defined by the Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) for digital television (TV) transmissions. The digital content is transmitted in a short range wireless network. In some embodiments, an encryption technique is applied to add security allowing decryption by a digital television using a firmware update, allowing retrofitting of security to devices currently deployed. | 04-28-2011 |
| 20110107355 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR SECURE HOST RESOURCE MANAGEMENT - Systems and methods are described herein to provide for secure host resource management on a computing device. Other embodiments include apparatus and system for management of one or more host device drivers from an isolated execution environment. Further embodiments include methods for querying and receiving event data from manageable resources on a host device. Further embodiments include data structures for the reporting of event data from one or more host device drivers to one or more capability modules. | 05-05-2011 |
| 20110107423 | PROVIDING AUTHENTICATED ANTI-VIRUS AGENTS A DIRECT ACCESS TO SCAN MEMORY - A computer platform may support anti-virus agents that may be provided access to directly scan the memory. The computer platform may comprise a platform control hub, which may comprise a manageability engine and a virtualizer engine, wherein the manageability engine may allow the anti-virus agents to be downloaded to a platform hardware space that is isolated from an operating system. The manageability engine may authenticate the anti-virus agents and provide an access for the anti-virus agents to directly scan a memory or a storage device coupled to the platform hardware. | 05-05-2011 |
