  • Publication number: 20240126886
    Abstract: This document describes techniques and systems for providing trusted computing for digital devices. The techniques and systems may use cryptographic algorithms to provide trusted computing and processing. By doing so, the techniques help ensure authentic computation and prevent nefarious acts. For example, a method is described that receives a signature associated with a designee and validates the signature. The signature may be associated with a designee of a host computing device, and the signature may be generated according to firmware associated with an integrated circuit of the host computing device and a first private key of a first asymmetric key pair. Signature validation may be based on a second asymmetric key pair having a second private key and a second public key, the second private key stored in write-once memory of the host computing device.
