Lockheed Martin had two patents in digitalization during Q1 2024. Lockheed Martin Corp has developed a system for digital rights management that includes determining if digital media is locally installed before initiating an operating system, generating attestation data, communicating data to a server through encryption, receiving a binary file and decryption key, sealing the file using a sealing enclave, generating a local decryption key, and installing the sealed file on local storage.

Application: Digital content management through on-die cryptography and remote attestation (Patent ID: US20240037217A1)
Lockheed Martin Corp. has developed a system for digital rights management that involves a processor in a platform and a memory device with instructions to perform various operations. These operations include determining the presence of locally installed digital media before initiating an operating system, launching a UEFI application to generate attestation data and communicate with a server in case the media is not installed, receiving a binary file and decryption key from the server, sealing the binary file using a sealing enclave, generating a local decryption key, and installing the sealed binary file on local storage. Additionally, the system involves loading the sealed binary in a second UEFI application, decrypting it, and executing the digital media upon successful decryption.
The claims of the patent detail the specific components and steps involved in the digital rights management system. These include verifying attestation of the binary file, generating unique keys for hypervisor operation, launching different UEFI applications based on media presence, and retrieving recovery instructions for update recovery scripts. The system utilizes encryption methods like TLS and RSA, as well as cryptographic entropy to ensure secure communication and data protection. Overall, the patent outlines a comprehensive approach to managing digital rights through a series of operations performed by the processor and memory device in the platform.
