Abstract: A device and/or method for allowing authorization of computing device association using human-perceptible signals includes forming an association between a computing device and a further computing device. The computing device computes a fingerprint of a common key derived during the forming of the association and emits a first audio stimuli based upon the computed fingerprint. The first audio stimuli is at least one octave number apart from a second audio stimuli of the further computing device emitted by the further computing device based upon the common key.

Abstract: A method for operating a computing system with a trusted processor include generating a secret cryptographic key based on a physically unclonable function in at least one hardware component in the trusted processor, generating a first public key and first private key using first secret cryptographic key, and executing instruction code corresponding to a first software program. The method further includes generating output data with the trusted processor during execution of the first software program, generating encrypted data corresponding to the output data using the first public key for at least a portion of the encryption, generating a signature of the encrypted data, and transmitting with an input/output (I/O) interface operatively connected to the trusted processor the encrypted data and the signature for storage in an untrusted memory.
