NIST IR 7904
DRAFT (Second Draft) Trusted Geolocation in the Cloud: Proof of Concept Implementation
NIST announces the second public comment
release of Interagency Report (IR) 7904,
Trusted Geolocation in the Cloud: Proof of Concept Implementation.
This report describes a proof of concept implementation that was
designed by NIST to address challenges with Infrastructure as a
Service (IaaS) cloud technologies and geolocation. Since the initial
public comment release, NIST IR 7904 has been extensively updated to
reflect advances and changes in the proof of concept implementation
technologies.
Please submit comments by August 24,
2015 to
ir7904-comments@nist.gov, with "IR 7904 Comments" in the subject
line.
Abstract This publication explains selected security challenges involving Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) cloud computing technologies and geolocation. It then describes a proof of concept implementation that was designed to address those challenges. The publication provides sufficient details about the proof of concept implementation so that organizations can reproduce it if desired. The publication is intended to be a blueprint or template that can be used by the general security community to validate and implement the described proof of concept implementation. |
