US Patent 11176246 Enclave pool shared key

In one example, an enclave pool is formed. The enclave pool may include a plurality of enclaves. Each enclave may have a private enclave key and a public enclave key. A shared enclave pool key may be generated from or otherwise based on the public enclave key of each enclave of the enclave pool. A first enclave may be allocated from the enclave pool to a first cryptlet. A payload of the first enclave is received. The payload of the first enclave may be signed with a first digital signature by the private enclave key of the first enclave. A payload of the second enclave may be received. The payload of the second enclave may be signed with a second digital signature by the private enclave key of the second enclave. The first digital signature and the second signature may be validated via the shared enclave pool key.
