EnclaveScale: Hardware-Assisted Edge-DP for Secure Data Centre Power Telemetry

Abstract

EnclaveScale is a distributed, hardware-assisted telemetry architecture providing post-extraction attestation, enabling operators to collaboratively model high-resolution generative AI power transients. Existing cryptographic techniques scale poorly for 10-Hz streaming or fail to authenticate origins, permitting malicious hosts to spoof sensor inputs. We implement and evaluate a post-extraction pipeline utilizing DCAP attestation, differential privacy noise injection, and Byzantine rejection across 32 GCP Confidential VMs, achieving 0\% post-extraction attack success rate. This edge-DP approach distils continuous GPU transients into discrete Markov-chain transition matrices, guaranteeing event-level differential privacy. To mitigate pre-ingestion vulnerabilities, we propose an SPDM-authenticated first-mile layer. While current platforms lack attested I/O, emerging hardware architectures integrate PCIe IDE and TDISP to natively prevent host-level synthesis, securing the end-to-end provenance boundary. A Global Aggregation Enclave verifies these cryptographic proofs prior to capacity-weighted aggregation. Evaluation demonstrates a steady-state throughput of $131{,}406$ samples/s per enclave, amortising attestation overhead to $0.23\,μ$s/sample. On empirical NVML-sampled H100, A100, and L4 traces, EnclaveScale achieves a dynamic orchestration margin error of $1.3$\,MW compared to $0.1$\,MW for an honest-aggregator central-DP baseline. EnclaveScale establishes a secure foundation for dynamic multi-tenant power orchestration, obfuscating sub-second anomalies locally and protecting macro-workload confidentiality via spatial dilution during global aggregation.
