Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs)

A secure enclave is a protected system where data and code are isolated from other processes usually at a hardware level. Also known as Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs), they ensure confidentiality of data and integrity of computation running in them. This property is especially useful in decentralized networks where data and computation might be leaked or manipulated by untrusted hosts in whose machines the data is stored and processed.

In addition to normal servers, the network features confidential computing resources, also known as Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs) to ensure that the host machines can not tamper with the computations running on the network or leak user data.
