Private Compute Infrastructure Toolkit
What is Private Computing?
Private Computing is a set of technologies and practices focused on processing sensitive data while maintaining its privacy and security, often through methods like encryption, data minimization, and isolated processing environments (e.g., within a user's device).
A Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) is a foundational technology for Privacy Computing. TEEs provide a secure, isolated environment within a main processor that ensures data and code integrity and confidentiality, even if the main operating system is compromised.
The need for transparency is crucial, as operators must be able to verify and prove that user data remains uncompromised and untampered. This is particularly important for applications handling sensitive information such as biometric data (fingerprint or face IDs), financial credentials, or Protected Health Information (PHI).
Currently, building privacy-preserving applications using Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs) is complex and requires specialized knowledge. Developers face significant hurdles in creating and operating workloads that are both demonstrably private and transparent.
Private Compute Infrastructure Toolkit (PCIT) is dedicated to enabling trust in Privacy Computing by making it easy to develop and run such workloads. We focus on being open, standardized, portable, and reusable. This helps developers benefit from advanced privacy features while remaining agile and flexible.
