NVIDIA is collaborating with Apple and Google to support some of the next-generation Apple Intelligence features, using NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs with Confidential Computing integrated into Private Cloud Compute’s hardware security architecture running on Google Cloud.

NVIDIA Confidential Computing provides a hardware-based security layer for accelerated AI workloads. The technology protects data while it’s being processed by isolating workloads in trusted execution environments and enabling systems to cryptographically verify that the infrastructure has not been tampered with before any sensitive data is sent to the server.

For end users, NVIDIA Confidential Computing means that no one, not even the system’s builders, can look at their data, chats or conversations.

Adoption of NVIDIA Confidential Computing at this scale reflects a broader shift in AI infrastructure: As AI experiences combine on-device and cloud-based processing for their tasks, there’s a need for high-performance, server-side inference while maintaining strong privacy and security guarantees.
