VMware enlists Samsung and others for confidential computing
At the Confidential Computing Summit 2023, VMware announced that it’s collaborating with chipmakers Samsung, AMD, and the RISC-V Keystone community for a project, which would help accelerate the adoption of confidential computing.
With partners like Samsung, VMware will work to promote an open-source project known as the “Certifier Framework for Confidential Computing,” which aims to overcome some of the biggest barriers to adopting confidential computing.
Holger Mueller of Constellation Research Inc. told SiliconANGLE that it’s encouraging to see VMWare taking the lead in promoting confidential computing, as it’s the industry leader in virtual machines, which power the vast majority of application workloads.
“VMware is enlisting partners such as AMD, Samsung, and the RISC-V players to secure virtualized workloads at the hardware level,” Mueller said. As more workloads shift to the cloud, they need a better way to secure them and confidential computing does that, making it possible to run the right application on the right machine, safely and securely.
