Asylo is not tied to EPID; the framework aims to abstract away any unique behavior specific to TEE implementations, and provide a common backend interface that developers can code against. The goal is to allow developers to easily migrate their apps between backends with little to no source-code changes.

Specifically for attestation purposes, Asylo defines the EnclaveAssertionGenerator[1] and EnclaveAssertionVerifier[2] interfaces; these will need technology-specific implementations.

In this initial release we only support a simulated backend, for experimental development. We'll continue looking into specific TEE technologies going forward.
