PROFILE

Nilanjan Daw

Over a two-month period, contributed to the google/go-tpm-tools repository by building a secure cryptographic core for KeyManager, focusing on confidential compute workflows and robust key lifecycle management. Leveraging Go, Rust, and C, developed a memfd-backed in-RAM vault for key storage, implemented HPKE/DHKEM primitives with BoringSSL, and established comprehensive FFI interfaces for cross-language integration. Automated Rust dependency builds for Go integration tests and standardized error handling using Protobuf across all supported languages. Enhanced security by refining HKDF extraction logic and improved test reliability through monotonic time management, demonstrating depth in backend development, cryptography, and system programming.

February 2026: KeyManager work in google/go-tpm-tools delivered foundational cryptography core, secure in-RAM storage, HPKE/DHKEM primitives, robust FFI interfaces, lifecycle management, and launcher integration. This set of changes establishes a secure cryptographic foundation and enables confidential compute workflows, with careful attention to memory safety, zeroization, and RFC-compliant crypto flows. Highlights include a common crate with shared data structures and proto bindings, a memfd-backed Vault for key material, HPKE/DHKEM primitives backed by BoringSSL, comprehensive FFI surfaces for key generation and management, and end-to-end integration into the Confidential Space launcher via a feature toggle.
