Abstract
The disclosed technology provides for packaging a secure cloud workload at a workload provisioning service. A unique device identifier is received from an edge device. The unique identifier is associated with the edge device. A unique packaging key is cryptographically generated based on the received unique device identifier, a unique workload identifier corresponding to a secure cloud workload to be executed on the edge device, and a nonce. The secure cloud workload is encrypted to generate a packaged secure cloud workload using the cryptographically generated unique packaging key. The encrypted secure cloud workload is transmitted to the edge device. The edge device is capable of independently cryptographically generating the unique packaging key using the unique device identifier, the unique workload identifier, and the nonce. The edge device is also capable of decrypting the packaged secure cloud workload using the generated unique packaging key cryptographically generated by the edge device.
