Abstract
Methods and systems for performing a computational operation on a server host using a secure enclave are provided. Exemplary methods include: receiving an encrypted service request from a client host, the client host encrypting a service request to produce the encrypted service request using a shared secret, the service request specifying the computational operation; decrypting, in a secure enclave that is established by a secure environment, the encrypted service request using the shared secret to produce a decrypted service request; performing the computational operation, in the secure enclave, using the decrypted service request to generate a service result; encrypting, in the secure enclave, the service result using the shared secret to create an encrypted service result; and providing the encrypted service result to the client host, the client host decrypting the encrypted service result using the shared secret.
