The Runtime Security Engine (RSE) has emerged as a crucial component in modern security architectures, serving as a hardware root-of-trust and an isolated attestation enclave for A-profile compute subsystems. As computing environments evolve to support Confidential Computing, Zero Trust architectures, and advanced attestation mechanisms, RSE must adapt to new security challenges and performance demands. This talk will explore the evolution of RSE, focusing on: - Enhancements in hardware and software to address emerging threats. - RSE’s role in Arm Confidential Compute Architecture (CCA) and DICE attestation schemes. - Expanding RSE’s capabilities to support multi-tenant environments, cloud security, and AI-driven applications. - Lessons learned and future directions for scalability, flexibility, and interoperability. By examining these advancements, this session will provide insights into the next generation of RSE and its impact on trusted execution, attestation, and secure computing environments. This session is intended for security architects, firmware engineers, system designers, and researchers interested in trusted computing, attestation mechanisms, and hardware security.
