A secure start system for an autonomous vehicle (AV) can detect startup of the AV and transmit credentials to a backend system. When the credentials are authenticated, the secure start system can receive a tunnel key from the backend system. Using the tunnel key, the secure start system can establish a private communications session with a backend vault of the backend system and retrieve a set of decryption keys from the backend vault. Using the set of decryption keys, the secure start system can verify and decrypt a cryptographically signed, encrypted, and compressed file system for execution by a compute stack of the AV—where execution of the file system by the compute stack enables autonomous operation of the AV.
