Systems, methods, and devices for security attribute caching and accelerated wake times of secured environments

A system comprising:

• a nonvolatile memory configured to store a portion of code;
• a secured cache comprising one or more secured storage regions;
• and
• one or more processing elements included in a processor implemented in a secured execution environment, the processor being configured to:
• perform a first cryptographic computation on a portion of code to generate a result;
• determine if a verified result is stored in a secured storage location;
• in response to determining that the verified result is stored, retrieve the verified result from the secured storage location;
• in response to determining that no verified result is stored, determine an authenticated version of a cryptographic value, the authenticated version of the cryptographic value being determined based on a signature computation and a second cryptographic computation that is an asymmetric cryptographic computation;
• and
• determine if the result of the first cryptographic computation is verified based, at least in part, on a comparison of the result with the verified result or the authenticated version of the cryptographic value.
