  • System and method for policy based adaptive application capability management and device attestation
    Patent number: 10341321
    Abstract: A method provides policy based adaptive application capability management and device attestation for dynamic control of remote device operations. The method includes instrumenting applications installed on a remote device to examine their runtime application programming interface (API) invocations to trusted functions abstracted by a trusted services platform anchored to an underlying firmware, software or hardware root of trust, and managing the application security operations based on the execution context and dynamic privilege controls to restrict their capabilities. The invention also provides a local attestation agent to perform state measurements for platform trust, configuration and operational metrics, and generates device policy based platform and application level alerts.
