Confidential Computing

Hardware-based security technology that protects data during processing by performing computations in secure, hardware-isolated environments called enclaves.

In Plain Language

Special computer hardware that protects data while it's being processed. Even the system administrator can't see the data; it's locked in a secure vault inside the processor.

Why This Matters

Confidential computing is a technical governance control that protects data during AI processing. For organisations handling highly sensitive data, it provides a stronger security posture that supports both compliance and customer trust.
