A manageability engine or adjunct processor on a computer platform may receive a request for activation and use of features embedded within that platform from a service provider authorized by the manageability engine's manufacturer. The manageability engine may initiate a request for authority through the service provider to a permit server. The permit server may provide, through the service provider, proof of the service provider's authority, together with a certificate identifying the service provider. Then the manageability engine may enable activation of the features on the platform coupled to the manageability engine, but only by the one particular service provider who has been authorized.
