Abstract
Instantiating an attestation facilitation component that allows a remote application to attest to a secure state of a secure memory application executing upon a secure platform of a computer system regardless of a type of either the secure platform or a health attestation service. Instantiation comprises identifying a property that includes at least one of the secure platform type and the health attestation service type. The instantiation is customized with the identified property. The attestation facilitation component verifies that a report generated by the secure platform represents that the secure memory application is operating in a secure state, and accesses a token generated by the health attestation service that represents that the secure platform is operating in a secure state. The attestation facilitation component generates a quote that allows the remote application to verify that the secure platform and the secure memory application are both operating in secure states.
