this by far the coolest and most important security project I have worked on in my career.

@dwizzzleMSFT Would this be analogous to Titan and SEP?

@jonoberheide Yeah you can think of that way except its not a discrete chip - its on die and in the CPU complex which means the attack surface is smaller. In XBOX we don't trust anything (data, bus connections) from outside of the SOC complex

@dwizzzleMSFT Last time Intel tried this with SGX, things didn't go well at all. Why would this be any different?

@dwizzzleMSFT @LongDogSecurity When I think security, having to deal with how Qualcom has packaged & signed their updates for both their drivers & firmware in the past, gotta hope a lot of lessons have been both learned, more importantly, applied as they go forward.

@dwizzzleMSFT After Micrsoft's collaboration with the NSA on PRISM to illegally spy on everyone, I have serious trust issues with them putting a "security" chip in my computer that can report what my CPU is doing. It sounds wonderful in theory, but the dystopian vibes I am getting are strong.

@dwizzzleMSFT Oh yes, security by obscurity? Another Intel management engine/SGX? Closed source blobs?

@dwizzzleMSFT @pwnallthethings Will this prevent such computers from booting in any OS other than Windows?
