Overview

Secure data while it is being processed

Traditional encryption protects data at rest and in transit, but sensitive information remains exposed while it is being processed. This “data-in-use” gap represents one of the most critical security challenges in modern cloud and distributed infrastructures.
Eviden Confidential VM addresses this challenge by enabling secure execution of workloads inside confidential computing environments. Data and applications run within hardware-isolated trusted execution environments (TEEs), ensuring complete confidentiality even from cloud providers, hypervisors, and system administrators.
This approach enables organizations to securely process highly sensitive data in cloud, hybrid, and distributed environments without compromising control, privacy, or sovereignty.

Why Eviden

Why choose Confidential VM

Sovereign-grade confidential computing expertise

Eviden delivers advanced confidential computing solutions designed for environments where trust, sovereignty, and control are non-negotiable. Built for sensitive industries and regulated sectors, Confidential VM reflects deep expertise in securing data beyond traditional encryption boundaries, especially at the data-in-use layer.

Hardware-enforced trust without infrastructure dependency

Confidential VM relies on trusted execution technologies such as AMD SEV-SNP, Intel TDX, and TPM to enforce security directly in hardware. This eliminates the need to trust cloud providers or system operators, ensuring that sensitive workloads remain fully isolated throughout their execution lifecycle.

Seamless adoption for existing linux workloads

Unlike complex secure execution platforms that require application redesign, Eviden Confidential VM is based on a hardened Linux environment. This allows organizations to run existing applications and tools without modification, significantly reducing deployment friction and accelerating adoption of confidential computing.

Integrated security across the eviden ecosystem

Confidential VM is not an isolated technology, it is part of a broader Eviden Data Protection portfolio. It complements encryption, key management, and advanced cryptographic solutions, enabling end-to-end protection from data creation to storage, transmission, and execution.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Eviden Confidential VM is a secure execution environment that protects sensitive workloads by isolating them inside hardware-backed trusted execution environments. It ensures that data remains protected not only at rest and in transit, but also while it is being processed.

It addresses the “data-in-use” security gap, where sensitive information is exposed during computation. By isolating workloads in secure hardware environments, it prevents cloud providers, administrators, or malicious actors from accessing data while it is being processed.

Integrity is ensured through snapshot-based verification and continuous monitoring. Snapshots capture system state, boot sequence, and software configuration, while runtime checks detect unauthorized changes to maintain a trusted execution environment over time.

Eviden Confidential VM is designed to work natively with Eviden Key Management solutions (KMS). This integration enables secure handling of encryption keys within trusted execution environments, ensuring that cryptographic operations and sensitive workloads remain protected end-to-end, even in untrusted infrastructure. It strengthens overall data protection by combining secure key management with isolated execution.
