Abstract
Methods and apparatus relating to a Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) compliant Device Identifier Composition Engine (DICE) certificate chain architecture for embedded systems are described. In an embodiment, Deterministic Random Bit Generator (DRBG) logic circuitry generates a random number for each layer of a Device Identifier Composition Engine (DICE). The DRBG logic circuitry is a Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) approved DRBG logic circuitry. Logic circuitry derives an Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA) private key for a layer of the DICE based at least in part on one or more operations of a FIPS-approved ECDSA key pair generation logic circuitry. Other embodiments are also disclosed and claimed.
