Abstract

Systems and methods provide an Information Handling System (IHS), comprising a host processor module and a secure control module. A baseboard management controller executes a process that binds the host processor module to the secure control module using a hash value calculated from characteristics of components of the first host processor module. The process to bind the first host processor module to the secure control module comprises retrieving hardware identity certificates from all SPDM-capable hardware devices in the first host processor module, retrieving firmware measurements from all SPDM-capable hardware devices in the first host processor module, calculating an initial hash value from the hardware identity certificates and the firmware measurements, and storing the initial hash value either in the baseboard management controller or in the security processor.
