Description
Confer is a privacy-first AI chatbot developed by Signal founder Moxie Marlinspike to challenge the data practices of popular AI assistants. It mirrors the conversational experience of tools like ChatGPT while eliminating the risk of user data collection. Confer is built so that conversations cannot be accessed, stored, or monetized by the service itself. Messages are protected using WebAuthn-based encryption, ensuring secure communication between users and the AI. On the backend, all processing occurs inside a Trusted Execution Environment with remote attestation safeguards. The system uses open-weight AI models to handle a wide range of user queries. This approach makes Confer far more complex than traditional AI setups but significantly more secure. Users can safely discuss highly personal topics without worrying about surveillance or profiling. Confer offers a limited free tier for casual use. A paid plan unlocks unlimited access and more advanced capabilities for privacy-conscious users.
Description
Google Cloud's Confidential Computing offers hardware-based Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs) that encrypt data while it is actively being used, thus completing the encryption process for data both at rest and in transit. This suite includes Confidential VMs, which utilize AMD SEV, SEV-SNP, Intel TDX, and NVIDIA confidential GPUs, alongside Confidential Space facilitating secure multi-party data sharing, Google Cloud Attestation, and split-trust encryption tools. Confidential VMs are designed to support workloads within Compute Engine and are applicable across various services such as Dataproc, Dataflow, GKE, and Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform Notebooks. The underlying architecture guarantees that memory is encrypted during runtime, isolates workloads from the host operating system and hypervisor, and includes attestation features that provide customers with proof of operation within a secure enclave. Use cases are diverse, spanning confidential analytics, federated learning in sectors like healthcare and finance, generative AI model deployment, and collaborative data sharing in supply chains. Ultimately, this innovative approach minimizes the trust boundary to only the guest application rather than the entire computing environment, enhancing overall security and privacy for sensitive workloads.
