Abstract
Multi-node and multi-processor security management is described in this application. Data may be secured in a TPM of any one of a plurality of nodes, each node including one or more processors. The secured data may be protected using hardware hooks to prevent unauthorized access to the secured information. Security hierarchy may be put in place to protect certain memory addresses from access by requiring permission by VMM, OS, ACM or processor hardware. The presence of secured data may be communicated to each of the nodes to ensure that data is protected. Other embodiments are described.
