In one embodiment, memory cell includes a control gate, a floating gate, a substrate comprising a source region and a drain region, a first isolator between the control gate and floating gate, and a second isolator between the floating gate and the substrate. The memory cell is configured to have a retention time that is within a statistical window around a selected lifespan. The selected lifespan may be less than ten years, such as, for example, less than one year, less than one month, or less than one week.

Memory structure for self-erasing secret storage

In accordance with some embodiments, fuse information may be written into a fuse array in a way that provides sufficient redundancy, making it harder for malicious parties to attack the fuse array.

Redundant fuse coding

Efficient architecture for a secure access enforcement proxy is described. The proxy interfaces with multiple subsystems and multiple shared resources. The proxy identifies an original transaction command being sent from one of the subsystems to one of the shared resources, identifies a policy corresponding to the subsystem, performs an action pertaining to the original transaction command based on the policy, and sends a response to the subsystem based on the action.

Secure access enforcement proxy

An embodiment uses hardware secrets secured within a security engine to provide a secure solution for field key provisioning. An embodiment is operating system independent due to the out-of-band communications with the security engine. Secrets need not be provisioned during manufacturing time. An embodiment may ensure only security engine specific provisioned secrets are used at runtime. Other embodiments are addressed herein.

Secure remote credential provisioning

An apparatus and method for updating security association database entries in a system having multiple security channels by selectively granting access to the entries by a plurality of the multiple security channels that may need to update the same entry using a first-come, first-served scheme. The apparatus includes a controller circuit that functions to carry out the method which, for each of the multiple security channels, includes determining whether another of the security channels has a higher priority to access a particular security association database entry. If no other channel has a higher priority, then the channel requesting access to the entry retrieves it from its address location, modifies it, and writes the modified entry back to its address location. The controller prevents other channels from simultaneously, or substantially simultaneously, retrieving and modifying the same entry.
