What Is Confidential Computing? Here’s A Great Example
Confidential computing refers to the protection of data in use by performing computation within a hardware-backed secure environment. This shields code and data from observation or modification by privileged software and hardware agents, reducing the burden of trust on a computer’s operating system or hypervisor.
Confidential Computing in action
Sounds great, but what does that mean in reality? Can you give me an example of confidential computing in action?
Sure! We’ve created this easy-to-read comic book to bring the idea of confidential computing to life. Read on to discover how two scientists might use the concepts behind confidential computing to help diagnose a rare bone disease by aggregating encrypted patient data…
