Abstract
Examples may include a method of protecting memory and I/O transactions. The method includes allocating memory for an application, assigning a resource of a physical device to the application, assigning a process address space identifier to the assigned resource, creating a security enclave to protect the allocated memory of the application, and associating the security enclave with the process address space identifier to protect the allocated memory and the assigned resource.
