Abstract

Techniques for security module endorsement are provided. An example method includes receiving a generalized endorsement key at a security module, wherein the security module is associated with a computing device and wherein the generalized endorsement key is independent of characteristics of the computing device, automatically extending integrity measurements stored in one or more registers of the security module with information characterizing the computing device, wherein the integrity measurements are based on one or more software processes at the computing device, digitally signing the extended integrity measurements with a digital signature, and generating a specialized endorsement credential as a combination of the digitally signed extended integrity measurements, the digital signature and the generalized endorsement key, wherein the specialized endorsement credential is used to validate authenticity of the security module.
