Definition

Confidential Computing is the protection of data in use by performing computation in a hardware-based, attested Trusted Execution Environment.

Mission Statement

The purpose of the Confidential Computing Consortium is to raise, budget and spend funds in support of various open source and/or open standards projects relating to:

• defining confidential computing and accelerating acceptance and adoption in the market.
• developing open enterprise-grade building blocks (e.g., open specifications and open source licensed projects), including a Confidential Computing portfolio and development experience, to enable easy development and management of enterprise-grade Confidential Computing applications, and
• defining foundational services and frameworks that are Confidential Computing aware and minimize the need for trust.
