AUDITING AND PERMISSION PROVISIONING MECHANISMS IN A DISTRIBUTED SECURE ASSET-MANAGEMENT INFRASTRUCTURE

摘要

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 command to create a Module and executes a Module Template to generate the Module in response to the command. The Module is deployed to an Appliance device. A set of instructions of the Module, when 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. The Appliance device is configured to distribute the data asset to a cryptographic manager (CM) core of the target device.
