Multiple news sites are carrying stories about a new security startup, Skyport Systems and their new cloud solution. From the perspective of firmware, their server is supposed have it’s firmware ‘continuously verified’:

“The SkySecure Server is a trusted computing platform. It consists of purpose-engineered hardware that is extremely difficult to compromise and can be deployed in untrusted environments. Some of the features include:
 * A hardware-based root-of-trust for the entire system lifecycle from the point of manufacture onwards
 * Continuous verification of the hardware, firmware, BIOS, OS, and workloads
 * Compartmentalization of subsystems – I/O, x86 compute, workloads, compartments – which isolates vulnerability in the event of a breach
 * Tamper-resistant hardware”

I have no personal experience with their platform, nor what kind of BIOS they’re using, and how they’re verifying it. It appears to be closed-source, I’ve not been able to find any code. Speak up if you find the code!
