Remote Attestation on NUC 9VXQNX

[suzaki]

Can we use the Remote Attestation of SGX on NUC 9VXQNX which has Xeon CPU?

Hello Suzaki,

Yes. The NUC 9VXQNX includes a Xeon E-2286 processor. The specs (https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/processors/core/core-vpro/e-2286m.html) for this processor show that it supports SGX, therefore, enclaves that run on it can be remotely attested.

Thank you for your quick reply.

I agree that the CPU is suitable for SGX and Remote Attestation.

My question is whether the platform " NUC 9VXQNX" has no problem for BIOS/UEFI to run Remote Attestation.

I read the post that tells some vendors BIOS/UEFI do not fit for Remote Attestation.

"Remote attestation still returns "configuration needed" with latest bios and microcode update"

Hello Suzaki,

There are many factors that determine what response will be received from IAS during remote attestation. I recommend that you test the NUC using the remote attestation sample app in the Intel SGX SDK or the sgx-ra-sample found here, https://github.com/intel/sgx-ra-sample.

Hello Jesus,

I understand the situation.

I will buy a  NUC 9VXQNX and try Remote Attestation on it.

Thank you.
