Abstract
A method includes determining, by a tracker controller of a hardware security module, that a first processor has submitted a first request to access a computing resource. The method also includes determining, by the tracker controller, whether the first request and a second request both request access to the same computing resource. The second request is submitted by a second processor. The method also includes preventing access to the computing resource based on a determination that the first request and the second request do not request access to the same computing resource. The method also includes permitting access to the computing resource based on a determination that the first request and the second request both request access to the same computing resource.
