Attestability.com

Descriptive .com domain for “attestability” - a neutral banner for evidence-first trust: verifiable system evidence, remote attestation architectures, and procurement-ready assurance.

This note outlines how Attestability.com can be used as a strategic naming asset by cloud platforms, security and infrastructure teams, regulated industries, audit/assurance firms, insurers, and public programs. It is not a policy document, standard or binding framework, but a vendor-neutral reference and language tool.

Why “attestability” now?

Modern systems increasingly operate across multi-cloud, distributed supply chains, autonomous workloads, and data-in-use environments. In this context, “trust by policy” is often insufficient; organizations need trust by evidence.

“Attestability” names the capability layer that makes evidence feasible and dependable: systems must be able to produce verifiable statements about what they are, what is running, how it was built, and under which guarantees, so that verifiers and relying parties can make risk and procurement decisions.

This is a language gap as much as a technical one: “attestability” provides a stable umbrella for evidence-first strategies across multiple domains.

Attestability vs Attestation

Attestation is the act (or protocol) of producing evidence about a system. Attestability is the capability of the system (and its surrounding infrastructure) to make that evidence possible, verifiable, and maintainable over time.

What attestability implies (capability model)

Attestability is therefore a procurement-grade term: it names the property that enables reliable evidence across stakeholders and time.

Minimal reference model (IETF RATS)

A practical, widely reusable framing relies on three roles: Attester (produces evidence), Verifier (evaluates evidence), Relying Party (uses the result). This model is foundational for board-level clarity and auditability.

Attester Evidence Verifier Appraisal Policy Relying Party

Attestability becomes the “capability envelope” that makes these roles and flows reliable across contexts: cloud, edge, confidential computing, software supply chain and autonomous workloads.

Where attestability becomes a decision lever

a) Confidential computing and data-in-use

Attestability connects TEEs/TPMs and trusted execution environments to enterprise assurance: evidence of enclave identity, measurements, and runtime guarantees.

b) Software supply chain and provenance

Procurement increasingly asks for attestations around secure development practices, build integrity, and signed artifacts. Attestability is the umbrella that makes these proofs coherent and comparable.

c) Non-human identity (workloads, agents)

As autonomous components and workloads proliferate, “who/what is running where” becomes an evidence question. Attestability provides the capability vocabulary for verification at scale.

d) Long-lived evidence and post-quantum agility

Evidence must remain verifiable over retention horizons. Crypto-agility and the transition to PQC are part of attestability-by-design.
