Abstract

See full text

The present disclosure provides an approach for migrating the contents of an enclave, together with a virtual machine comprising the enclave, from a source host to a destination host. The approach provides a technique that allows the contents of the enclave to remain secure during the migration process, and also allows the destination host to decrypt the contents of the enclave upon receiving the contents and upon receiving the VM that includes the enclave. The approach allows for the VM to continue execution on the destination host. The enclave retains its state from source host to destination host. Applications using the enclave in the source host are able to continue using the enclave on the destination host using the data migrated from the source host to the destination host.
