What are Red Hat Confidential Virtual Machines?
Confidential Virtual Machines (CVMs) are a set of hardware and software technologies which provide additional measures for the confidentiality of the data processed within the VMs. Namely, the data is protected from the physical host which runs the VM at all stages: in transit, at rest and in use. These protections are especially important when the owner of the VM differs from the owner of the infrastructure, e.g. when the workload runs on a public cloud.
