The Remote Attestation Procedures (RATS) BoF was held on Tuesday [1].  This BoF proposed work to standardize formats for describing assertions/claims about system components and associated evidence of their validity via roots of trust; and procedures and protocols to convey and appraise these assertions/claims by the relying parties.

The BoF was well attended and facilitated robust discussion. This discussion focused on the problem definition and refining what parts of this problem would need standardization.  Further feedback is welcome on the RATS mailing list [2].  Additionally, a draft charter for this work is available for review [3].
