Securing applications with AWS Nitro Enclaves: TLS termination, TAP networking, and IMDSv2
This post builds on our workshop “Build multi-party crypto wallets with AWS Nitro Enclaves” which demonstrates a Shamir Secret Sharing (SSS) application. The SSS app securely splits cryptographic private keys into multiple shards, requiring a threshold number to reconstruct the original key, ideal for Nitro Enclaves as it prevents any single party from accessing the complete key while maintaining operational functionality. AWS Nitro Enclaves provide isolated environments that keep critical operations such as decryption and cryptographic key management secure from both from root user and external threats.
