The implementation will be really interesting: can a VM, container, or RDP be compliant ever with WEI? To proof - or give at least a solid certainty, a runtime is direct connected to a GUI, and function calls triggered by this GUI are coming from event handler, triggered by human interactions with a keyboard or pointer device, WEI would need a separate channel to the cam.

This means the only way to make this proof is to link the current environment and interactions with a history of interactions stored by a third party (i.e. Google). This only would make WEI to a new layer on top of todays fingerprinting.




Yes. For example ChromeOS doesn't provide direct TPM access to the browser sandboxes but virtualizes a vTPM per application.

Same technology is used for GCP where each server is attached a virtual TPM by the hypervisor.
