Abstract
Some embodiments include systems and methods for the management of a plurality of expanded cryptographic keys associated with a plurality of corresponding Protected Software Environments (PSEs) supervised by PSE-management software running on a computer system. In one embodiment, a computer system has a first processor, a first memory controller, and a first RAM. The first memory controller has a first memory cryptography circuit connected between the first processor and the first RAM. The memory cryptography circuit comprises a keystore and a first cryptographic engine. The keystore comprises a seedstore and a key-expansion engine. The seedstore is configured to store a first plurality of cryptographic key seeds accessible by a key identifier, for use by the key-expansion engine to generate expanded keys, where each key seed corresponds to a corresponding client.
