Remote attestation of host devices

A computing device, comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• memory including instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the computing device to:
• provision a secure store on the computing device of a resource provider environment to store credentials, the resource provider environment including a plurality of remote computing devices available over a network;
• receive a set of credentials from a remote computing device of the plurality of remote computing devices;
• store the set of credentials in the secure store;
• reboot the computing device during a boot time;
• determine, during the boot time, that a failure likely occurred on the computing device prior to rebooting the computing device;
• analyze one or more conditions during the boot time;
• detect, based at least in part on the one or more conditions, that a failure occurred on the computing device, prior to the boot time, causing the computing device to terminate abnormally;
• load, in response to detecting that the failure occurred on the computing device, a recovery image into the memory of the computing device to obtain access to a loaded recovery image;
• and
• initiate, using the loaded recovery image, at least one boot service on the computing device in response to authenticating the computing device to one of the plurality of remote computing devices using the set of credentials.

A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing one or more sequences of instructions executed by at least one processor to cause the at least one processor to:

• provision a secure store on a host computing device of a resource provider environment to store credentials, the resource provider environment including a plurality of remote computing devices available over a network;
• receive a set of credentials from a remote computing device of the plurality of remote computing devices;
• store the set of credentials in the secure store;
• reboot the host computing device during a boot time;
• determine, during the boot time, that a failure likely occurred on the host computing device prior to rebooting the host computing device;
• analyze one or more conditions during the boot time;
• detect, based at least in part on the one or more conditions, that a failure occurred on the host computing device, prior to the boot time, causing the host computing device to terminate abnormally;
• load, in response to detecting that the failure occurred on the host computing device, a recovery image on the host computing device to obtain access to a loaded recovery image;
• and
• initiate, using the loaded recovery image, at least one boot service on the host computing device in response to authenticating the host computing device to one of the plurality of remote computing devices using the set of credentials using the set of credentials.
