Confidential Containers became a CNCF Incubating project
Another level up has just happened in the CNCF, with its TOC accepting moving Confidential Containers to the Incubating level. This project enables confidential computing by leveraging hardware-based TEEs (Trusted Execution Environments) to protect containers and data by encrypting data during computation.
Confidential Containers started in 2021 by Red Hat, Intel, IBM, and other companies. It was accepted into the CNCF Sandbox in March 2022. Today, this technology is used in IBM LinuxONE, Red Hat OpenShift, Kubermatic KubeOne, Alibaba Cloud, and several other solutions.
