enclaive Confidential Computing Platform (eMCP)

enclaive is a Berlin-based confidential computing company, operating as enclaive GmbH and marketing itself as made in Germany. It protects data while it is being processed, targeting public sector, finance, healthcare, critical infrastructure and AI workloads.

Its eMCP platform runs applications in secure hardware enclaves across hyperscalers, EU clouds and on-premises, without requiring code changes. The product family covers confidential VMs, confidential Kubernetes, vHSM key management with release only after attestation, workload identity and attestation, and confidential AI. A EUR 4.1 million seed round was announced in February 2026.

• Confidential VMs: run virtual machines in hardware-protected enclaves.
• Confidential Kubernetes: protect containerized workloads.
• vHSM key management: releases keys only after attestation.
• Workload identity and attestation: verifies workloads before they receive secrets.
• Confidential AI: runs AI workloads on protected data.
• Multi-cloud operation: spans hyperscalers, EU clouds and on-premises.

Vietnamese banks can process sensitive customer data on public cloud inside enclaves. Hospitals and government bodies can run AI analytics on protected datasets.

Protects data in use, which encryption at rest and in transit does not cover.

Runs existing applications in enclaves without code changes.

Supports multi-cloud, EU cloud and on-premises deployment on AMD, Intel and Arm processors.

Releases keys only after workload attestation.

Data sovereignty rules and AI use on sensitive data raise demand for protecting data during processing. Vietnamese banks and government bodies subject to data localization and the data law may evaluate confidential computing for cloud and AI workloads.

Seed round of EUR 4.1 million announced 3 February 2026, co-led by Join Capital and the Amadeus APEX Technology Fund with Auriga Cyber Ventures. ISO/IEC 27001 certified. Partners listed include STACKIT and NATO DIANA.
