  • Publication number: 20240370575
    Abstract: Various embodiments include methods and devices for circumventing processor error induced vulnerability. Embodiments may include determining whether a condition indicative of an error in a processor exists for a first processor, and preventing use of the first processor in response to determining that the condition indicative of the error in the processor exists for the first processor. In some embodiments, preventing use of the first processor may include transitioning the first processor to a low power state. In some embodiments, preventing use of the first processor may include preventing the first processor from being registered with an operating system. In some embodiments, the condition indicative of the error in the processor may include an enabled non-secure debug feature of the processor and a disabled secure debug feature of the processor.

  • Publication number: 20050272405
    Abstract: A method of controlling transmission of broadcast content from a content provider via a broadcast means to an end user device using an intermediary network comprises validating the time and location of the end user device by verifying the identity and location of a device on the intermediary network; sending a nonce from a intermediary network to an end user device at a first time; sending the nonce from the end user to the network at a second time; sending an encrypted request for content from the network to the broadcast means; decrypting the request to verify the identities of the devices and the time and location data; and sending content from the broadcast means to the end user device if the identities are verified and the time interval between the first and second times is less than the predetermined time interval.
