Abstract:
This paper introduces a compliance certification system that utilizes blockchain technology and a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) for secure and trustworthy scanning of Kubernetes clusters. The aim is to help organizations overcome the challenges of maintaining industry standards and regulatory requirements in dynamic and distributed Kubernetes environments. The system design incorporates a TEE to ensure secure scanning processes and leverages blockchain technology to provide transparency and trust in the certification process. The paper provides insights into theexecution flow of the compliance certification process and presents the evaluation and results of the Proof-of-Concept implementation. The findings demonstrate that the system effectively addresses concerns related to trustworthiness, transparency, and accountability in certifying Kubernetes clusters. Despite that, further research and development efforts are required to refine and optimize the system for production-ready deployment.
