Confidential Computing Enclaves
for the Masses (CoCEM)

Project Summary

Cloud computing enables seamless data access across multiple devices, collaborative work and centralized data storage. However, using the cloud imposes significant limitations in terms of data confidentiality and privacy, control over geographic and jurisdictional placement of data, as well as data and service portability across cloud providers. While some of the challenges have promising solutions, these promises remain unfulfilled

The CoCEM project aims to design and prototype an orchestration service for Confidential Computing workload deployment, paving the way for unprecedented user empowerment.
