    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for re-instantiating a firmware environment that includes one or more firmware functions available at pre-boot time when transitioning the computing device from a first, higher power consumption state to a second, lower power consumption state. The firmware environment determines whether a cryptographic signature on a firmware volume is verified; whether hardware resources of the computing device requested by a manifest of the firmware volume are available; and whether a firmware module of the firmware volume is compatible with installed firmware of the firmware environment. If so, the firmware environment reserves space in a memory to accommodate resources used by the firmware module, and executes the firmware module with the computing device in the second, lower power consumption state.

    Abstract: A system, device, and method for facilitating wireless communications during a pre-boot phase of a computing device includes establishing a communications interface between a unified extensible firmware interface executed on the computing device and a wireless transceiver of the computing device during a pre-boot phase of the computing device. An OOB processor of the computing device processes data communications between the unified extensible firmware interface and the wireless communication circuit during the pre-boot phase by reformatting the data communications between wired and wireless communication standards.

    Abstract: In an embodiment a single user authentication event, performed between a trusted path hardware module and a service provider via an out of band communication, can enable a user to transparently access multiple service providers using strong credentials that are specific to each service provider. The authentication event may be based on multifactor authentication that is indicative of a user's actual physical presence. Thus, for example, a user would not need to enter a different retinal scan to gain access to each of the service providers. Other embodiments are described herein.
