Machine Trust

Machine trust refers to establishing that computing devices are authentic and secure, allowing them to be trusted participants in digital interactions. It encompasses measures such as secure boot processes, device attestation, and cryptographic validation to confirm a device’s identity, configuration, and integrity.

Once trusted, devices can exchange data and execute transactions confidently, creating a secure ecosystem where systems can interact reliably. Machine trust is crucial for enabling secure networks, protecting sensitive data, and supporting the development of trusted computing environments.
