Definition
The term, in context
AI-assisted draft · approved dataset
NVIDIA Blackwell confidential computing places the GPU inside the trust boundary of a CPU-based confidential virtual machine, encrypting GPU memory and producing a signed attestation of the device's firmware and configuration. Its TEE-I/O support admits the accelerator as a trusted device on the PCIe link, so data moves between host and GPU protected in transit rather than passing through the hypervisor in plaintext.
