Technologies for verifying components

摘要

Technologies for verifying hardware components of a computing device include retrieving platform identification data of the computing device, wherein the platform identification data is indicative of one or more reference hardware components of the computing device, accessing hardware component identification data from one or more dual-headed identification devices of the computing device, and comparing the platform identification data to the hardware component identification data to determine whether a hardware component of the computing device has been modified. Each of the one or more dual-headed identification devices is secured to a corresponding hardware component of the computing device, includes identification data indicative of an identity of the corresponding hardware component of the computing device, and is capable of wired and wireless communication.

主权项

1. A computing device for verifying hardware components of the computing device, the computing device comprising:
one or more dual-headed identification devices, wherein each of the one or more dual-headed identification devices is secured to a corresponding hardware component and includes (i) hardware component identification data indicative of an identity of the corresponding hardware component, (ii) a wired communication circuit, and (iii) a wireless communication circuit; and a processor to establish a platform verification module to (i) retrieve platform identification data of the computing device indicative of one or more reference hardware components of the computing device, (ii) identify one of the dual-headed identification devices as a primary dual-headed identification device, (iii) receive, from the identified primary dual-headed identification device, component set identification data that includes hardware component identification data of one or more secondary dual-headed identification devices different from the primary dual-headed identification device, and (iv) compare the platform identification data to the hardware component identification data in the component set identification data to determine whether a hardware component of the computing device has been modified.
