Systems and methods for attesting an enclave in a network. A method includes receiving, by a first device, proof information from an application provider entity that the enclave is secure, wherein the proof information includes a public part, Ga, of information used by the enclave to derive a Diffie-Hellman key in a key generation process with the application provider entity, processing, by the first device, the proof information to verify that the enclave is secure and ensuring that Ga is authentic and/or valid, deriving, by the first device, a new Diffie-Hellman key, based on Ga and x, wherein x is a private part of information used by the first device to derive the new Diffie-Hellman key, and sending, by the first device, a message including Ga and a public part, Gx, of the information used by the first device to derive the new Diffie-Hellman key to the enclave.
