Confidential Computing

Confidential Computing protects sensitive data, code, and secrets even against root users having complete control over operating systems and hypervisors. In this way, one can extend the benefits of cloud computing to sensitive workloads like processing electronic health records. It can also be used to protect intellectual property or for secure collaboration between partners. Dive deep into confidential computing with this comprehensive module, where you'll explore everything from foundational principles to advanced techniques. Gain hands-on experience with SCONE, SGX, and cloud-native solutions as you learn to develop secure applications, optimize performance, and manage complex security policies. Whether it’s mastering attestation, implementing zero trust architectures, or managing encrypted data with Vault and HSM, this course equips you with the skills to tackle today’s most pressing security challenges. By the end, you’ll be ready to implement robust confidential computing solutions in real-world scenarios.
