Application: Performing security functions using devices having embedded hardware security modules (Patent ID: US20230391345A1)

The patent filed by Micron Technology Inc. describes a system where a host processor in a vehicle selects primary and secondary devices from a group of devices for security functions. These devices have embedded hardware security modules and store information for security functions. The host processor can detect failures in these devices and initiate remediation processes accordingly. The system ensures continuous security functions by reallocating responsibilities between devices based on failures, ensuring the integrity of the vehicle's nodes and user authorizations.

Furthermore, the patent details the configuration of the primary and secondary devices, their association with specific sets of nodes in the vehicle, and the process of reconfiguring devices in case of failures. The system also includes provisions for over-the-air updates, endpoint connections, and alerts for failures. By establishing a root of trust for the host processor and enabling devices to perform security functions based on stored information, the system ensures robust security measures within the vehicle's IoT network.
