Confidential Computing is quickly becoming the new standard for secure cloud and data-center infrastructure. Yet even as the market for Confidential VMs, Confidential Kubernetes, and Confidential AI is growing rapidly, many providers still lack a clear overview of which hardware and software components are actually suitable for Confidential Computing. This is where our whitepaper comes in.

It provides a comprehensive overview of the key technologies—from Intel, AMD, ARM, and NVIDIA to Linux distributions, hypervisors, and virtual machine managers. Detailed comparison tables offer an at-a-glance view of which model generations support Confidential Computing and what technical capabilities they provide.

Essential reading for anyone making strategic infrastructure decisions. Whether you’re a hyperscaler, colocation provider, or cloud service provider, this whitepaper shows how Confidential Computing opens new revenue opportunities, simplifies compliance, and delivers robust protection for sensitive customer workloads.
