Global enterprise software company R3 has launched Conclave, a confidential computing platform that protects sensitive corporate data while in use.

Conclave allows organizations to securely aggregate their datasets to solve common business problems for their customers and markets, without exposing the actual data to anyone. This paves the way for a new generation of trusted services that detect fraud, reduce costs, deliver valuable multi-party analytics, and more – anywhere the owners of the data have control over its processing.

The Conclave solves critical business problems when data sharing is necessary, but no single person or company sees each other’s information. For example, a bank that operates an electronic marketplace but wants to assure its customers that it will not see their data; or an insurer that needs to share information about fraudulent claims without violating privacy laws. Traditionally, data is only encrypted at rest and in transit, but Conclave also protects data during processing.

Leveraging the combined power of privacy computing and Intel® Software Guard (Intel® SGX) extensions, the Conclave platform is designed for developers and professional computing. It has an intuitive, high-level API that allows users to write applications on any operating system and code in the language of their choice.

Conclave is currently available as a standalone platform and is compatible with R3’s flagship platform, Corda Enterprise. Full integration between Corda Enterprise and Conclave is underway.

David E. Rutter, CEO of R3, stated: Patented data – when shared and combined effectively – is the key to deeper analysis, better insight and business opportunities. However, many companies refuse to send these because they do not know how they will be used. The R3 Conclave is uniquely designed to solve this trust problem with the promise of technologies such as Privacy Computing and Intel SGX. Conclave offers best-in-class technology, backed by the vast experience of our developers and sales team, to enable customers to enter a new era of data protection when sharing, processing and analyzing data.

Ralf Helkenberg, Head of Privacy and Data Security Research for Europe at IDC Today’s businesses face a very thin line between privacy regulations and data-driven business outcomes. Powered by Intel Confidential Computing hardware technology, the privacy-friendly R3 Conclave platform enables organizations to accelerate collaboration and innovation with sensitive data in a secure, reliable and compliant manner.

Haim Finisola, Director of ClaimShare at IntellectEU: As developers of serialized applications, we face the greatest challenges in recognizing the uniqueness of users and data on the network without exposing or providing sensitive information. With the launch of our insurance platform ClaimShare, Conclave proved to be the missing piece of the puzzle. This allows us to prevent duplicate fraud claims by comparing the identity of suspected claims between insurers. With the Conclave we have taken another step forward in the fight against real-time fraud.

Intel’s SGX can help improve the confidentiality and integrity of data and algorithms in multiparty systems, said Anand Pashupathy, general manager of security software at Intel. R3 Conclave’s developer-friendly features for developers can help extend the use of Intel SGX to enterprise applications.

Dr Pandurang Kamath, technical director of Permanent Systems, said Our confidential conferencing platform uses the Conclave to ensure businesses security and confidentiality by encrypting customer data. This is invaluable for any organization that processes personal data, especially when it comes to moving workloads to the cloud. The user-friendly design of the conclave allowed us to upload pre-built machine learning templates directly into a secure conclave for conferences. This allows scientists to concentrate on building models and our platform to work with them in complete confidentiality. The Conclave is secure, customizable and flexible – an excellent choice for any organization looking to take advantage of confidential computing.
