We also have some more basic use cases:

  • blender: Blender 3D creation suite. We show how to protect the blender image while permitting clients that deploy this image to customize the image. They can customize without having access to the key used to protect that image.
  • PySpark: Apache Spark with Python inside of Intel SGX enclaves with the help of SCONE.
  • TensorFlow: Run TensorFlow inside of Intel SGX enclaves with the help of SCONE.
  • TensorFlow Lite: TensorFlow Lite inside of Intel SGX enclaves with the help of SCONE.
  • OpenVino: Run OpenVino based applications inside of Intel SGX enclaves with the help of SCONE.

We will add more use cases over time.
