Privacy enhancement Sharemind HI (Hardware Isolation)

Guaranteed confidentiality with Sharemind HI.

The Sharemind HI Application Server provides an Application Programming Interface (API) for implementing privacy-preserving services using Trusted Execution Environments. Sharemind HI keeps track of applications, their authorised users and data.

Safe access

Apps running on Sharemind HI use its APIs to request access to data. Sharemind HI enforces that each user can perform activities according to its roles. All accesses are controlled and logged by Sharemind HI.

Big data applications

A key feature of Sharemind HI is the standard library of privacy-preserving data analysis algorithms designed for use in Trusted Execution Environments with limited memory access. This feature allows Sharemind HI to support big data applications that balance privacy and performance.

Powered by Intel® SGX

Sharemind HI uses the Software Guard eXtensions (SGX) technology by Intel to create Trusted Execution Environments. Sharemind HI makes extensive use of the attestation feature provided by SGX. Sharemind HI customers can receive proofs that a server is running the correct versions of Sharemind HI and its applications.

Enforcer clients

Sharemind HI supports special enforcer clients who can enable or disable an application remotely based on information provided by Sharemind HI. This information can include the configured roles and software versions, but also audit logs.
