Introduction

Automata Network is a modular attestation layer that extends machine-level trust to Ethereum with TEE Coprocessors. Ethereum functions as a global verifier that anchors a global, decentralized network of attestations taking place across both hardware and software components.

Hardware as the common root-of-trust enables a number of promising use cases:

  • Multi-Prover systems based on secondary TEE Prover

  • Provisioning of fairness and privacy to RPC relay

  • Block building within encrypted enclaves

This helps rollups to achieve an Ethereum-aligned future that is at once more auditable, open, and collaborative. supports Automata’s modular framework with its one-click deployment.
