Confidential Computing Analytics Platform with Hardware-Backed Security

GhostTelemetry is a Proof of Concept demonstrating confidential computing for security analytics. Built for alpha-level presentations, it showcases:

• Trusted Execution Environments (AWS Nitro Enclaves, OCI AMD SEV-SNP)
• Hardware-Backed Signing (YubiKey integration for deployment authorization)
• Immutable Audit Trail (Merkle tree ledger)
• Zero-Knowledge Analytics (Query encrypted data without decryption)
• Real-Time Threat Detection (ML-powered anomaly detection)

• All data encrypted at source with per-tenant DEKs
• Keys only accessible to attested TEE instances
• Hardware-backed deployment signing (YubiKey)

• AWS Nitro Enclaves: Hardware-isolated VM partitions
• OCI AMD SEV-SNP: Full VM memory encryption
• PCR/TPM-based attestation for key access

• ML-powered anomaly detection
• Sub-100ms query latency
• 100K+ events/sec processing

• Cryptographic Merkle tree ledger
• Every query execution logged
• Tamper-evident audit logs

• Alpha Deck Notes - Executive talking points
• TEE Deployment Guide - OCI & AWS architecture
• Incident Walkthrough - Step-by-step demo

• CI/CD Pipeline (ci-cd.yml): Security scans, testing, quality gates.
• Microservices Deployment:
  • deploy-api-services.yml
  • deploy-control-plane.yml
  • deploy-ledger.yml
  • blue-green-deployment.yml
  • canary-deployment.yml
  • rollback.yml
• Demo Deployment: deploy-demo.yml, deploy-full-stack.yml
• Alpha Pre-Flight (alpha-demo-preflight.yml): Presentation readiness validation.
• Protobuf Generation (generate-protos.yml): Automated SDK binding regeneration.
• Documentation (documentation.yml): Link checking, metrics generation.

• Languages: Python 3.11
• TEE Platforms: AWS Nitro Enclaves, OCI Confidential VMs
