Attestation and Identity Provisioning to Intel SGX Workloads

Explore the potential of workload attestation mechanisms for identity provisioning in multi-cloud environments during this 19-minute conference talk. Delve into how strong identities can simplify policy management and enhance service integration. Learn about the opportunity to elevate threat models and strengthen application identities using Intel SGX technology in confidential computing. Discover the concept of an SGX Attestor and its ability to reflect not only where code runs but also the loaded application code and supporting filesystem configuration. Understand the benefits of this approach, including seamless integration between sensitive workloads in untrusted environments and those in trusted environments, with minimal additional developer effort.
