DESCRIPTION:Charly Castes\nEDIC candidacy exam\nExam president: Prof. Math
 ias Payer\nThesis advisor: Prof. Edouard Bugnion\nCo-examiner: Prof. James
  Larus\n\nAbstract\nThe last two decades saw the birth and flourishing dev
 elopment of trusted execution environments\, motivated by security\, confi
 dentiality\, and privacy concerns due to increasing software complexity an
 d adoption of public clouds in modern infrastructures. Despite the impress
 ive diversity of proposed environments and intensive research from both ac
 ademia and industry\, no unifying design has emerged yet.\nIn this proposa
 l\, we discuss in chronological order three designs of trusted execution e
 nvironments that serve as motivation for our research. We highlight the un
 derlying mechanisms used by these environments\, the evolution of availabl
 e technology\, and current limitations. In the light of previous works\, w
 e propose our research direction aiming at identifying and implementing th
 e minimal requirements for trusted execution environments\, enabling more 
 flexible designs on top of a unifying abstraction.\n\nBackground papers\n-
