Welcome to the TEE Kettle Forum!

Think of this space as the kitchen where we craft the vision of Autonomous/Trustless TEE. Here, we boil ideas, stir up meaningful discussions, and collaboratively challenge and complement each other to push the boundaries of innovation. Let’s build together!

:small_blue_diamond: New here? Introduce yourself under this thread so people know who they’re talking to!

:bulb: Want to get more involved? Feel free to reach out if you’d like to take part in the moderation work!

Hi everyone!

I’m South African and I’m loosely based in New York.

I’m also a researcher at Flashbots and I’ve spent the last while looking at what it would take to get to trust-minimised TEEs. You can read some of my work here. I’ve also done a bunch of work on MEV and auction design.

Hi! I’m Alex, I work on quantum communication technologies at deep quantum. You can learn more about me here.

I don’t directly use TEEs but I am interested in them and the conversations within this forum for two reasons:

  1. TEEs can provide ‘quantum-inspired’ functionalities. While the security guarantees of these functionalities are weaker, the functionalities can nonetheless start being played with (eg. teleport.best) and useful information collected as to how they are used.
  2. i believe the current trend towards improving secure hardware (that many of you here are working on!) likely leads to quantum hardware – the endgame wrt to secure hardware.

I’m Ajinkya. I coordinate research and do some software engineering at Poetic Technologies.
I’m interested in all kinds of security questions as well as nitty-gritty details of hardware design in the context of TEEs. At Poetic, I’m also thinking about new kinds of applications autonomous TEEs would enable.

Hi everyone, I am Abhinav Gupta, I have been working in embedded systems, FPGA, RTOS, Development boards and SoC design for over 11 years. In a previous work experience in EPFL I had some exposure to semiconductor foundries as well.

My primary interest is to help in developing open source SoCs and the project here with TEE seems to be like a perfect place for my skills, interests and passion. I would love to help in create a solid framework of development board hardware that can be used to experiment and build our own SoC with a secure TEE/TCB.
