Abstract
According to embodiments of the present disclosure, a Security Protocol and Data Model (SPDM)-enabled device uses a device identity to provide, among other things, a SPDM-based firmware protection system and method that, upon execution by computer-readable instructions, receive, from a requesting device, a request to update the SPDM-enabled device with a software package, and obtain the software package from an online portal. The computer-readable instructions further encrypt the software package with an encryption key, encrypt the encryption key with a device identity certificate of the requesting device, and send the encrypted software package and encrypted encryption key to the requesting device.
