You indeed could setup some basic stuff this way, but I wouldn't recommend it as a long term strategy. The way that our privacy product was built protected users from a variety of issues. I also wouldn't recommend using AWS for this till you can install your own trusted hypervisor and encrypt memory/disk/etc.
- sweis 13y agoYou can run on bare-metal providers like SoftLayer, which allows you run your own trusted hypervisor or OS. This, as you said, isn't currently possible on AWS. Incidentally, PrivateCore has a trusted, remotely-attested hypervisor that encrypts memory and runs on providers like SoftLayer: http://www.privatecore.com http://www.privatecore.com
