Zusammenfassung
The cloud business is growing year by year, but there are still a lot of security concerns. The users of cloud systems, from a single individual to big companies, have to trust multiple parties who could all interfere and disrupt the provided service or compromise data privacy and security. New software exploits are being found every day, therefore we propose a secured reconfigurable hardware architecture to house sensitive algorithms and data. Using vetted cryptographic techniques and the slight inaccuracy of todays chip-manufacturing to generate unique keys only available to the hardware itself, we are able to create a trusted compute space in a remote cloud system. To achieve typical cloud characteristics like resource pooling and rapid elasticity, the reconfigurable silicon is virtualized while preserving the high security standard.
