Abstract:
1. An apparatus, comprising: one or more processors; an interface module executed by the one or more processors to receive event management data related to an event type from at least one host device driver, the interface module to send the event management data; an event routing service executed by the one or more processors to receive the event management data from the interface module; and at least one capability module coupled to the event routing service to receive the event management data for events characterized by event ids that the at least one capability module has subscribed to, wherein the interface module is a memory scan interface module, and wherein the memory scan interface module accesses the memory of a host device independently of the operating system of the host device, wherein the interface module, the event routing service, and the at least one capability module are part of a platform that is independent of the host device, and wherein the interface module, the event routing service, and the at least one capability module are executed within an environment isolated from the host device.
