SPIFFE, the Secure Production Identity Framework For Everyone (SPIFFE) Project defines a framework and set of standards for identifying and securing communications between application services.

SPIFFE, the Secure Production Identity Framework for Everyone, is a set of open-source standards for securely identifying software systems in dynamic and heterogeneous environments.

A SPIFFE ID is a string that uniquely and specifically identifies a workload. SPIFFE IDs may also be assigned to intermediate systems that a workload runs on (such as a group of virtual machines).

The result of a successful node attestation is that the agent receives a unique SPIFFE ID. The agent’s SPIFFE ID then serves as the “parent” of the workloads it’s in charge of.

Jan 27, 2025 · This book presents the SPIFFE standard for service identity, and SPIRE, the reference implementation for SPIFFE. These projects provide a uniform identity control plane across modern, …

This tells SPIRE how to identify the workload and which SPIFFE ID to give it. Create a new registration entry for the node, specifying the SPIFFE ID to allocate to the node:

SPIFFE Library Usage Examples SPIRE Agent Configuration Reference SPIRE Server Configuration Reference SPIRE Telemetry Configuration MaintainUpgrade/Downgrade SPIRE Helm Chart …

In order for SPIRE to identify a workload, you must register the workload with the SPIRE Server, via registration entries. Workload registration tells SPIRE how to identify the workload and which …

SPIRE supports a specific form of JWT that is specifically designed to encode SPIFFE IDs, the JWT-SVID. SPIRE can simplify the widespread deployment of JWT-SVIDs between workloads in …

SPIRE is a production-ready implementation of the SPIFFE APIs that performs node and workload attestation in order to securely issue SVIDs to workloads, and verify the SVIDs of other workloads, …
