Confidential computing,
with confidence.
Cloud providers manage the confidential computing infrastructure.
OpenConfidential helps you close the gaps in your confidential computing configuration.
Confidential computing is not binary. The hardware exists. The protections vary. Many customers enable a confidential resource — a VM, a container, an AI inference endpoint — check a compliance box if required, and assume they are protected. In practice, the actual level of confidentiality depends on configuration choices that cloud vendors rarely surface clearly. OpenConfidential is the clarity layer.
Hardware-based Trusted Execution Environments encrypt memory and isolate execution at the CPU level. Protects your data and code during processing — from memory dumps, other tenants, the host OS, and the hypervisor.
With proper attestation and customer-controlled key management, your cloud provider cannot access your data in use. This threshold requires deliberate configuration — it may not be the default.
The frontier of the spectrum. Jurisdiction, provider policy, key sovereignty, and hardware attestation all affect exposure. It's possible that no configuration eliminates this risk entirely — but some reduce it significantly.
