Abstract
A method, computer program product, and a system where a secure interface control determines functionality of a secure guest based on metadata. The secure interface control ('SC') obtains metadata linked to an image of a secure guest to be started by an owner and managed by the hypervisor, where the metadata comprises control(s) that indicate whether a secure guest generated with the image is permitted to obtain a response to a particular request. The SC intercepts, from the secure guest generated with the image, during runtime, a request. The SC determines, based on the control(s), if the secure guest is permitted to obtain a response to the request. If permitted, the SC commences fulfillment of the request, within the computing system. If not permitted, the SC ignores the request.
