Toward Usable Open-Source Remote Attestation for Cloud and Edge
summary
Demonstrates an integration between Keylime and flightctl that replaces Keylime’s pull model with a Keylime verifier push API so flightctl’s agent sends TPM quotes; verifier still validates PCR quotes and IMA logs. Shows scale tests at thousands to tens of thousands of nodes, marks TPM features in flightctl as experimental, and lists three concrete reference-value sources: build-system exports, golden measurements, and TOFU initial boot measurements. Maps work to IETF RATS and calls for automated policy generation from build pipelines.
