Zusammenfassung:Embodiments of systems, apparatuses, and methods to enable a value-added storage service of a storage system coupled to a client are described. In some embodiments, a system establishes a secure root of trust for the client. In addition, the system establishes a secure tunnel between an application of the client and a storage system of the client. Furthermore, the system securely downloads a license for the value-added storage service to the storage system and provides the license from the storage system to an application via the secure tunnel.
