CII Best Practices

Welcome to Confidential Containers

Confidential Containers is an open source community working to enable cloud native confidential computing by leveraging Trusted Execution Environments to protect containers and data.

Goals:

  • Allow cloud native application owners to enforce application security requirements
  • Transparent deployment of unmodified containers
  • Support for multiple TEE and hardware platforms
  • A trust model which separates Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) from guest applications
  • Least privilege principles for the Kubernetes Cluster administration capabilities which impact delivering Confidential Computing for guest application or data inside the TEE.
