  • Patent number: 9058163
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a processor comprises a programmable map and a circuit. The programmable map is configured to store data that identifies at least one instruction for which an architectural modification of an instruction set architecture implemented by the processor has been defined, wherein the processor does not implement the modification. The circuitry is configured to detect the instruction or its memory operands and cause a transition to Known Good Code (KGC), wherein the KGC is protected from unauthorized modification and is provided from an authenticated entity. The KGC comprises code that, when executed, emulates the modification. In another embodiment, an integrated circuit comprises at least one processor core; at least one other circuit; and a KGC source configured to supply KGC to the processor core for execution. The KGC comprises interface code for the other circuit whereby an application executing on the processor core interfaces to the other circuit through the KGC.

  • Publication number: 20090193230
    Abstract: A computer system includes a main processor and a security control processor that is coupled to the main processor and configured to control and monitor an operational state of the main processor. To ensure the computer system may be trusted, the security control processor may be configured to hold the main processor in a slave mode during initialization of the security control processor such that the main processor is not operable to fetch and execute instructions from an instruction source external to the main processor, for example. In addition, the security control processor may be configured to initialize the operational state of the main processor to a predetermined state by transferring to the main processor via a control interface one or more instructions and to cause the main processor to execute the one or more instructions while the main processor is held in the slave mode.

  • Publication number: 20090183245
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a computer system comprises one or more components and a secure computing environment coupled to the components. The secure computing environment is configured to program at least one of the components to enter a limited functionality mode responsive to expiration of a use right to the computer system, wherein operation of the computer system in the limited functionality mode is reduced compared to operation when the use right has not expired. The secure computing environment is configured to monitor the components in the limited functionality mode to detect that a limited functionality mode configuration has been modified by an unauthorized entity and to cause the computer system to enter a second mode in which operation of the computer system is reduced compared to operation in the limited functionality mode in response.

  • Patent number: 7427150
    Abstract: An exterior rearview mirror assembly of the present invention, includes a lamp module with light sources functioning as a turn signal indicator, a security light, and a blind spot indicator. The light module may include at least one LED device that is activated during different activation modes so as to operate in two or more of the following modes: a blind spot indication mode, a turn signal mode, and a security light mode. The LED device may emit light of different color during the different modes of operation. The security light may be oriented to illuminate the door handle and keyhole. The light module may be positioned behind the mirror element to project light through the mirror element.
