Confidential Computing is a hardware-based technology that shields computer workloads from their environments and keeps data encrypted during processing.
In this Help Net Security video, Felix Schuster, CEO at Edgeless Systems, talks about the open-source release of Constellation.
Constellation allows anyone to keep their Kubernetes clusters verifiably shielded from the underlying cloud infrastructure and encrypted end-to-end.
It is now available on GitHub and comes with unique features such as "Whole cluster" attestation.
Constellation shields workloads and the control plane from the infrastructure and ensures that all data is encrypted in rest, in transit, and in use.
Constellation works with Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud Platform and doesn't require changes to workloads or existing tooling.
