An embodiment may include circuitry that may be comprised in a host. The host may include memory and a host processor to execute an operating system. The circuitry may be to determine, independently of the operating system and the host processor, the authenticity of signature list information, based at least in part upon authentication information received by the circuitry from a remote server. The circuitry also may be to determine, independently of the operating system and the host processor, based at least in part upon comparison of at least one portion of the signature list information with at least one portion of contents of the memory, whether authorized and/or malicious data are present in the at least one portion of the contents of the memory. Of course, many variations, modifications, and alternatives are possible without departing from this embodiment. |
