Fortanix Enclave Manager and Runtime Encryption(RTE) - SolutionBrief
Container-based software development and deployment have become the next big thing in technology. Container technology, such as Docker, is redefining cloud computing and offers tremendous benefits to companies and developers, including consistency, reliability, efficiency, cost savings, and scalability across the entire DevOps process.
Intel® Software Guard Extensions (SGX) is a technology which allows software developers to encrypt their applications’ data at runtime. It achieves this by allowing applications to launch special protected software containers known as enclaves. These enclaves can be used for protecting applications’ data from adversaries with root privileges or even physical access to the memory bus.
In this Solution Brief, you will learn:
- Intel® Software Guard Extensions
- Challenges of running security-critical services in SGX
- Intel's remote attestation challenges
- Fortanix's Enclave Manager as a solution
- A high-level flow of Enclave Manager
