BINDING DATA TO A COMPUTING PLATFORM THROUGH USE OF A CRYPTOGRAPHIC MODULE

摘要

Using a cryptographic co-processor (220) in a computing system (202) to encode data (351-353) using parameters (361-363) determined during initialization, or during operation, or determined from machine specific values (301-323) or states to bind data optionally to a specific machine (301-303), a specific cryptographic co-processor (311-313), or a specific operating environment (321-323) or machine state.
