    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments are generally directed to inline encryption of data at line speed at a chip interposed between two memory components. The inline encryption may be implemented at a System-on-Chip (“SOC” or “SOC”). The memory components may comprise Non-Volatile Memory express (NVMe) and a dynamic random access memory (DRAM). An exemplary device includes an SOC to communicate with a Non-Volatile Memory NVMe circuitry to provide direct memory access (DMA) to an external memory component. The SOC may include: a cryptographic controller circuitry; a cryptographic memory circuitry in communication with the cryptographic controller, the cryptographic memory circuitry configured to store instructions to encrypt or decrypt data transmitted through the SOC; and an encryption engine in communication with the crypto controller circuitry, the encryption engine configured to encrypt or decrypt data according to instructions stored at the crypto memory circuitry. Other embodiments are also disclosed and claimed.

    Abstract: Technologies disclosed herein provide a method for receiving at a device from a remote server, a request for state information from a first processor of the device, obtaining the state information from one or more registers of the first processor based on a request structure indicated by a first instruction of a software program executing on the device, and generating a response structure based, at least in part, on the obtained state information. The method further includes using a cryptographic algorithm and a shared key established between the device and the remote server to generate a signature based, at least in part, on the response structure, and communicating the response structure and the signature to the remote server. In more specific embodiments, both the response structure and the request structure each include a same nonce value.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatus relating to Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) compensation based on protected content are described. In an embodiment, secure memory stores data that is only accessible by trusted logic. Display controller logic circuitry updates pixel values to be stored in the secure memory based on a plurality of frames. The display controller logic circuitry allows access by untrusted software to the updated pixel values after a first number of updates to the pixel values stored in the secure memory. Other embodiments are also disclosed and claimed.

    Abstract: Technologies provide hardware-assisted privacy protection of sensor data. One embodiment includes unlocking a user interface coupled to a trusted execution environment of a processor in a device, where the user interface includes a plurality of selectable settings associated with a plurality of access levels for sensor data captured by a sensor. The embodiment also includes receiving a selection signal from the user interface indicating that a user selected a first setting associated with a first access level for the sensor data captured by the sensor, and restricting access to the sensor data based on a first set of one or more entities associated with the first access level. In more specific embodiments, the user interface includes a knob that is rotatably attached to a housing of the device or a privacy panel including a slider bar that is to be displayed on a touch screen display of the device.
