SRAS: Self-governed Remote Attestation Scheme for Multi-party Collaboration (2407.03745v1)

Abstract: Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs), such as Intel Software Guard Extensions (SGX), ensure the confidentiality and integrity of user applications when using cloud computing resources. However, in the multi-party cloud computing scenario, how to select a Relying Party to verify the TEE of each party and avoid leaking sensitive data to each other remains an open question. In this paper, we propose SRAS, an open self-governed remote attestation scheme with attestation and verification functions for verifying the trustworthiness of TEEs and computing assets, achieving decentralized unified trusted attestation and verification platform for multi-party cloud users. In SRAS, we design a Relying Party enclave, which can form a virtual verifiable network, capable of local verification on behalf of other participants relying parties without leaking sensitive data to others. We provide an open-source prototype implementation of SRAS to facilitate the adoption of this technology by cloud users or developers.
