In accordance with some embodiments, a protected execution environment may be defined for a graphics processing unit. This framework not only protects the workloads from malware running on the graphics processing unit but also protects those workloads from malware running on the central processing unit. In addition, the trust framework may facilitate proof of secure execution by measuring the code and data structures used to execute the workload. If a part of the trusted computing base of this framework or protected execution environment is compromised, that part can be patched remotely and the patching can be proven remotely throughout attestation in some embodiments.

Secure environment for graphics processing units

A device and method for securely rendering content on a gesture-enabled computing device includes initializing a secure execution environment on a processor graphics of the computing device. The computing device transfers view rendering code and associated state data to the secure execution environment. An initial view of the content is rendered by executing the view rendering code in the secure execution environment. A gesture is recognized, and an updated view of the content is rendered in the secure execution environment in response to the gesture. The gesture may include a touch gesture recognized on a touch screen, or a physical gesture of the user recognized by a camera. After the updated view of the content is rendered, the main processor of the computing device may receive updated view data from the secure execution environment.

Device and method for secure user interface gesture processing using processor graphics

Techniques for a data storage device to locally implement security management functionality. In an embodiment, a security management process of the data storage device is to determine whether an access to non-volatile media of the data storage device is authorized. In certain embodiments, the data storage device is to restrict access to a secure region of the non-volatile storage media, the secure region to store information used and/or generated by a security management process of the data storage device.

Techniques for security management provisioning at a data storage device

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.

Computer system and method with anti-malware

A virtual machine monitor; and an executive virtual machine to manage page tables in place of the virtual machine monitor are described. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.
