Abstract

A trusted orchestrator function subsystem inventory and verification system includes an OS, a BIOS, a management device, and a trusted orchestrator device. In response to presentation of a function subsystem to the OS during runtime, the OS generates a function subsystem detection alert that identifies the function subsystem. In response to the function subsystem detection alert, the BIOS generates and provides a BIOS inventory update that identifies the function subsystem. The management device receives the BIOS inventory update and, in response, forwards the BIOS inventory update. The trusted orchestrator device receives the BIOS inventory update and, in response, determine whether the function subsystem identified in the BIOS inventory update is included in a trusted function subsystem inventory. If so, the trusted orchestrator device allows the operating system to utilize the function subsystem while, if not, the trusted orchestrator device prevents the operating system from utilizing the function subsystem.
