Abstract
Disclosed in some examples are memory systems, computing systems, and machine readable mediums for protecting memory at identified addresses based upon access rules defining permissible access to the identified memory addresses that depends on the value of one or more registers stored in the memory system. In some examples, the value of the registers (e.g., a Platform Configuration Register) may depend on a state of a computing device in which the memory system is installed.
