Cloud computing has expanded rapidly as a promising technology in the recent years and has drastically altered the majority of opinions about computing mode and application deployment. While the cloud has been proved to improve efficiency and earn benefit for a great number of various services providers, yet a good few enterprises still hesitate to move to the cloud because of security threats. In this paper, we present jMonAtt architecture to provide robust trustworthy guarantees for high-level cloud applications through the enforcement of the trustworthiness evaluation and dynamic attestation with the assistance of HotSpot virtual machine. Moreover, it has less impact on the execution of an attested target when our architecture is deployed in the cloud application system.
