Patent
BIOS update file
TL;DR: In this paper, a system includes a processor, a memory including a basic input/output system (BIOS) in flash memory that includes digital signature verification, and a BIOS update installation process.
Patent
Continuation of trust for platform boot firmware
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose a continuation of trust for platform boot firmware, where the processing module loads a trusted pre-verifier file to load and verify the signature of a hash table loaded from the firmware.
Patent

TL;DR: In this article, an integrated circuit device at least one compute engine and a control unit is adapted to dynamically control an energy-efficient operating setting of one power management parameter for the integrated circuit devices after execution of Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) has already completed.
Patent
Management of authenticated variables
TL;DR: In this article, an out-of-band cryptoprocessor coupled with secure non-volatile storage is described, and firmware instructions are stored thereon for signing an object with the key.
Patent
Hardware configuration reporting systems
TL;DR: In this article, a hardware configuration reporting and arbitration system is described, where the request service logic, stored in the memory, is used to report an indicator of a value of the hardware configuration register represented by the request to the arbiter logic.
