open source rot
About this tag
The tag 'open source rot' on WindowsForum.com covers discussions about open-source root-of-trust (RoT) implementations in Microsoft's Azure cloud infrastructure. Recent threads highlight Azure's per-server Integrated HSM modules and the Caliptra 2.0 open-source RoT with integrated post-quantum cryptography accelerators. These technologies aim to strengthen tenant isolation, reduce cryptographic latency, and advance confidential computing. The tag focuses on hardware security boundaries, NVMe key management, and the practical deployment of open-source RoT at hyperscale. Topics are relevant to enterprise IT, cloud security, and Microsoft's silicon-level security architecture.
Microsoft’s cloud team has quietly re-architected the silicon under Azure to treat nearly every element of a server as a discrete security boundary — and it's shipping that architecture at scale across new servers this year and into 2025. What started as a collection of academic and hyperscaler...
