  • Publication number: 20230261867
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to centralized volume encryption key management for edge devices with trusted platform modules (TPM)s. In some examples, a TPM measures platform configuration register (PCR) values during a gateway boot process of a gateway device, including a PCR value for an extractor PCR. The extractor PCR refers to a PCR for an extractor application of the gateway device. The extractor application unseals a volume encryption key using the PCR value for the extractor PCR and a sealing authorization policy. The extractor application itself is verified as a result of measuring and using the PCR value for the extractor PCR.

  • Patent number: 11689365
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to centralized volume encryption key management for edge devices with trusted platform modules (TPM)s. In some aspects a volume encryption key is generated for a gateway device. A sealing authorization policy is also generated for the gateway device. The sealing authorization policy is generated based on a predetermined platform configuration register (PCR) mask and expected PCR values. The volume encryption key and the sealing authorization policy are transmitted from the management service to the gateway device to provision the gateway device with the volume encryption key.

  • Patent number: 8028225
    Abstract: Various technologies and techniques are disclosed for creating and managing a visual representation of OLAP attributes and relationships for a dimension. A visual representation is generated that contains an arrangement of shapes with connections between shapes. One or more sub-elements are contained within at least some of the shapes. Connections between the shapes represent relationships between attributes in an OLAP dimension. The containment of a respective sub-element within a respective shape represents a relationship between an attribute being represented by the respective sub-element and an attribute being represented by the respective shape. Shapes representing OLAP attributes and relationships can be programmatically grouped and ungrouped.
