It’s been a busy time since we announced Enarx and our vision for running workloads more securely to the world in August 2019. At the time, we had produced a proof of concept demo, creating and attesting a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) instance using AMD’s...
If you run software on someone’s servers, you have a problem. You can’t be sure your data and code aren’t being observed, or worse, tampered with -- trust is your only assurance. But there is hope, in the form of Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs) and a new open...
When you run a workload as a VM, container or in a serverless environment, that workload is vulnerable to interference by any person or software with hypervisor, root or kernel access. Enarx, a new open source project, aims to make it simple to deploy...
As people move workloads to shared and public cloud environments, what methods are available to attest their environment has not been tampered with? Is there a good way to use a standardized cryptographic module to do remote attestation, trusted system boot, and so...
Everyone has an opinion on how Blockchain will change business and society. Quite a few startups are working on their Blockchain-based products or services, and some of them are even using initial coin offerings (ICOs) as a funding vehicle. However, it’s hard to find...
In this video from the Red Hat Summit 2018, Chief Security Architect Mike Bursell takes an enthusiastic look at three open source security technologies: DevSecOps, serverless computing, and Trusted Execution Environments....
The goal of the Keylime project is to connect the features of Trusted Platform Modules (TPMs) and cloud computing. Keylime is a scalable trusted cloud key management system, providing an end-to-end solution for both bootstrapping hardware-rooted cryptographic...
In this video from Red Hat Summit 2018, Red Hat Chief Technology Officer Chris Wright gives a view into the future direction of Red Hat technologies. [youtube=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_LLAroJrJo&w=560&h=315] Chris begins with an overview of how Red...
At the first signs of Spring, all Red Hatters turn at least one eye toward Red Hat Summit. Over the years, we’ve had many conversations with attendees about what kind of information and perspectives they’d like to hear at Summit. We learned that attendees appreciated...
Blockchain is everybody’s latest buzzword–right up there with AI and IoT–but what does it mean, and how is it relevant to the enterprise? The answer to those questions is likely “a lot,” but before we get to that, let’s define what a blockchain is–and isn’t. So What...
If you could visualize the code that comprises our current technology landscape, you might imagine in your mind's eye a glowing field of interconnected lines with bright bits of information flowing along the lines' paths. Here and there, you might see flaws in the...
