security for virtual machines, which it says addresses some compliance concerns. Google says its new product is more convenient, requires no rewriting of applications, and provides better computer processing performance than any previous product. It also protects data previously exposed to cloud providers and the "insider risk" of dishonest employees.
That has especially been true in regulated industries. So if a bank built a modern app to process data, that bank had to keep it on a physical server. That has been very costly, because data servers are much more expensive than cloud storage. And it has also meant that many industries have been restricted to building their apps from scratch, rather than benefiting from the convenience of container applications that bundle programs together.
In a blog post, Google quoted the Thales Group, a multi-national maker of electrical and defense systems, that has used the new features: "The ability to encrypt sensitive data in the cloud whether at rest, in transit, or now, in use through confidential computing is very compelling for enterprises," said Raphaël de Cormis, VP Digital Factory, Thales. "Quite simply, the fact that Google Cloud's Confidential VMs offer this level of isolation in an easy-to-use package will help our customers achieve compliance and privacy in a seamless and cost-efficient manner."Start your day with a morning cheat sheet.
