  • Publication number: 20250005205
    Abstract: An example of an apparatus may include first circuitry that is to be selectively locked and unlocked, second circuitry to process one or more tokens including an unlock token for the first circuitry, and hardware authentication circuitry to authenticate the unlock token for the first circuitry in response to a request from the second circuitry. The apparatus may further include hardware ungate circuitry to selectively gate and ungate one or more features of the first circuitry in response to an indication that the first circuitry is one of locked or unlocked. Other examples are disclosed and claimed.

  • Patent number: 11754623
    Abstract: Systems and techniques of the present disclosure may provide remote debugging of an integrated circuit (IC) device while preventing unauthorized access of device intellectual property (IP). A system may include an IC device that generates an encrypted session key and an interface that enables communication between the IC device and a remote debugging site. The interface may enable the IC device to send the encrypted the encrypted session key to initiate a remote debug process, receive an acknowledgement from the remote debugging session, and authenticate the acknowledgement. Further, the interface may enable to the IC device to initiate a secure debug session between the IC device and the remote debugging site.
