  • Patent number: 11895109
    Abstract: The embodiments described herein describe technologies for Module management, including Module creation and Module deployment to a target device in an operation phase of a manufacturing lifecycle of the target device in a cryptographic manager (CM) environment. One implementation includes a Root Authority (RA) device that receives a first command to create a Module and executes a Module Template to generate the Module in response to the first command. The RA device receives a second command to create a deployment authorization message. The Module and the deployment authorization message are deployed to an Appliance device. A set of instructions of the Module, when permitted by the deployment authorization message and executed by the Appliance device, results in a secure construction of a sequence of operations to securely provision a data asset to the target device.

  • Patent number: 9923890
    Abstract: The embodiments described herein describe technologies for pre-computed data (PCD) asset generation and secure deployment of the PCD asset to a target device in an operation phase of a manufacturing lifecycle of the target device in a cryptographic manager (CM) environment. One implementation includes a Root Authority (RA) device that receives a first command to generate a unique PCD asset for a target device. In response, the RA device generates the PCD asset and packages the PCD asset for secure deployment of the PCD asset to the target device and to be used exclusively by the target device. The RA device deploys the packaged PCD asset in a CM system for identification and tracking of the target device.

  • Patent number: 9584509
    Abstract: The embodiments described herein describe technologies for ticketing systems used in consumption and provisioning of data assets, such as a pre-computed (PCD) asset. A ticket may be a digital file or data that enables enforcement of usage count limits and uniqueness issuance ore sequential issuance of target device parameters. On implementation includes an Appliance device of a cryptographic manager (CM) system that receives a Module and a ticket over a network from a Service device. The Module is an application that securely provisions a data asset to a target device in an operation phase of a manufacturing lifecycle of the target device. The ticket is digital data that grants permission to the Appliance device to execute the Module. The Appliance device verifies the ticket to execute the Module. The Module, when executed, results in a secure construction of a sequence of operations to securely provision the data asset to the target device.
