Description
Shielded VMs are fortified virtual machines on Google Cloud that incorporate a range of security measures designed to safeguard against rootkits and bootkits. By utilizing Shielded VMs, enterprises can shield their workloads from various threats, including remote intrusions, privilege escalations, and harmful insider actions. These VMs utilize sophisticated security features such as secure and measured boot processes, a virtual trusted platform module (vTPM), UEFI firmware, and continuous integrity monitoring. With just a few simple clicks, users can activate Shielded VMs, providing protection against sophisticated threats from malicious insiders, compromised guest firmware, and both kernel and user-mode vulnerabilities. This streamlined process makes it easier than ever to enhance the security posture of cloud-based workloads.
Description
IBM Cloud™ Data Shield allows users to operate containerized applications within a secure enclave on the IBM Cloud Kubernetes Service host, ensuring data-in-use protection. This innovative service facilitates user-level code to establish private memory areas known as enclaves, which remain safeguarded from higher privilege processes. Expanding support for Intel Software Guard Extensions (SGX), it broadens the programming language options from just C and C++ to include Python and Java™, as well as offering preconfigured SGX applications for popular tools like MySQL, NGINX, and Vault. Leveraging the Fortanix Runtime Encryption platform alongside Intel SGX technology, these resources empower organizations handling sensitive information to confidently utilize cloud computing solutions. By integrating IBM Cloud Data Shield, enterprises with critical data can seamlessly deploy and harness the advantages of cloud services while maintaining robust security measures. Moreover, this platform ensures that sensitive operations are executed in a protected environment, further enhancing trust in cloud-based applications.
