Abstract

A device may include a trusted component. The trusted component may be verified by a trusted third party and may have a certificate of verification stored therein based on the verification by the trusted third party. The trusted component may include a root of trust that may provide secure code and data storage and secure application execution. The root of trust may also be configured to verify an integrity of the trusted component via a secure boot and to prevent access to the certain information in the device if the integrity of the trusted component may not be verified.
