Abstract
In general, techniques are described for hardware-based detection and automatic restoration of a computing device from a compromised state. Moreover, the techniques provide for automatic, hardware-based restoration of selective software components from a trusted repository. The hardware-based detection and automatic restoration techniques may be integrated within a boot sequence of a computing device so as to efficiently and cleanly replace only any infected software component.
