Abstract
A semiconductor includes a set of protected hardware resources, where at least one protected hardware resource stores a secure key. The semiconductor also includes a computation kernel and a memory to store a resource enablement module executed by the computation kernel. The resource enablement module selectively enables a protected hardware resource in response to a delivered key corresponding to the secure key.
