Vmware Partners With Samsung, Amd And Risc-v To Accelerate Confidential Computing

VMware Inc. has announced an alliance with chipmakers Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd., Advanced Micro Devices Inc., and the RISC-V Keystone community to promote an open-source project known as the “Certifier Framework for Confidential Computing”. This project aims to overcome some of the biggest barriers to adopting confidential computing, which is a term that describes an encryption technology for data that’s being processed. The Certifier Framework makes it easier for developers to create privacy-preserving applications, including machine learning and data economy workloads based on sensitive information aggregated from multiple sources.
