Use Confidential Computing to Secure Your Critical Services in Cloud

Abstract

Confidential computing has emerged as a critical technology to secure sensitive data in cloud environments. This cutting-edge approach protects data during processing, ensuring confidentiality and integrity even in shared or untrusted environments. This paper provides an in-depth exploration of confidential computing, including its evolution, key components, and offerings from major public cloud providers. We also examined the importance of confidential computing for securing AI workloads and a cost analysis of implementing such solutions. Through case studies and real-world examples, we demonstrate the benefits of confidential computing in ensuring regulatory compliance, mitigating risks, and driving business growth. As the cloud landscape continues to evolve, confidential computing plays a vital role in safeguarding sensitive data and workloads, making it an essential component of modern cloud security strategies.
