Computation over sensitive data requires that the computation function is secure and trusted. Existing approaches either do not enforce formal verification, require the user to verify the proof, or lack secure attestation guarantees. In addition, neither addresses the issue of having users once again inspect the application after upgrading the code running in the enclave. We propose an approach that uses a formal specification to guarantee that the behavior of the computation function conforms to the desired functionality. By combining automated verification with attestation on a trusted execution environment, we ensure that only conformant applications are executed. At the same time, we allow updates of the computation function without changing the attestation response, as long as the formal specification still holds. We implement and evaluate the system on several functions; our results show an average overhead of only 50 %. Finally, we demonstrate the validity of the system using a real-world application, Dafny-EVM.
