METHOD FOR PROVIDING CERTIFICATES IMPLEMENTED BY A VIRTUALISED COMPUTING PLATFORM

A method for providing certificates is described, the method implemented by a virtualized computing platform comprising a root of trust, a hypervisor and at least one virtual machine, the hypervisor implementing one virtualized root of trust per virtual machine and offering root of trust services. The method includes establishing a first secure channel between the hypervisor and a verification entity, sending certification data of the hypervisor in the first secure channel to the verification entity, reception by the hypervisor, in the first secure channel, from the verification entity, of at least one piece of cryptographic data, establishing a second secure channel between each virtual machine and the verification entity, and ending certification data of each virtual machine in the second secure channel established for the virtual machine, depending on the associated virtualized root of trust.
