Zusammenfassung:	Methods and systems provide layered validation of workspaces providing isolated computing environments on an Information Handling System (IHS). A remote workspace orchestrator generates a workspace definition for deployment and operation of a workspace on the IHS using software containers that are specified in the workspace definition. The workspace definition is transmitted to the IHS and used to assemble software on the IHS for operation of the software containers specified in the workspace definition. The software containers assembled on the IHS are validated based on endorsement certificates identified in the workspace definition, wherein the endorsement certificates are provided by creators of the respective containers. The software containers may include upper-layer containers that each depend on one or more lower-layer containers. The containers in each layer may be separately validated, thus allowing containers from different creators to be separately validated for use by a workspace.
