Abstract
Protection for a secure boot procedure can be provided in addition to cryptographic verification of boot firmware associated with the boot procedure. While the boot firmware is being verified and executed at a secure sub-system, an open sub-system can be put into a halt state, during which the open sub-system is prevented from performing the boot procedure. The open sub-system is still prevented from performing the boot procedure even if the boot firmware is verified and/or executed unless the open sub-system is put into the resume state again.
