What the current evidence supports

Human editorial judgment · 2026-08-20

Track; not yet

Why
Primary-vendor, open-source, and conceptually aligned with pv's 'expose value not records' posture, but brand-new, preview-coupled, and unproven in our stack; the attested-TLS pattern is promising but needs our own measurement and a threat-model review of what the handshake does NOT measure.
Next
Clone github.com/google/prompt-encryption-sdk, run the Codelab against a Confidential G4 preview VM, and measure attested-TLS handshake + inference latency overhead on a representative pv inference call (realistic prompt sizes, small + large batch) before any production wiring; pair with a TEE threat-model review against the Trail of Bits unmeasured-input findings.
