Abstract
In one example, a system on a chip can include an embedded controller and a security controller that can detect, during an initialization process, a request for embedded controller firmware stored in block storage from the embedded controller via a transmission link. The security controller can also retrieve the embedded controller firmware stored in the block storage and transmit the embedded controller firmware to the embedded controller via the transmission link.
