A method to verify a geographic location of a virtual disk image executing at a data center server within a data center. One embodiment includes a cryptoprocessor proximate the data center server, a hypervisor configured to send a disk image hash value of the virtual disk image, a digital certificate issued to the cryptoprocessor, an endorsement key to a data center tenant and a location provider. The method includes sending a disk image hash value of the virtual disk image, an endorsement key unique to a cryptoprocessor proximate the data center server to a data center tenant, and a digital certificate to a data center tenant. Next, the location provider sends the geographic location of the cryptoprocessor matching the endorsement key to the data center tenant. |
