Description

Unable to validate how the Root Seal Key (RSK) is kept private from Intel, which manufactures the processors.

Resolution

During the processor manufacturing process, the RSKs are randomly generated and burned into e-fuses in the processor. After the key is burned into the processor, Intel removes all traces of the key from its systems.
