We are a new enterprise software company building the next generation of AI security infrastructure– designed to make enterprise AI adoption safe and scalable. AI has introduced two new risk categories that traditional enterprise security does not address: data security and agentic safety. Security threats, technical complexity, and governance challenges are preventing full adoption of AI. The Confidential Core Product Suite is a chip-level, cryptographically secure environment where data and models perform inference without exposing data to the model owner or IP to the data owner. Within this environment, we implement a network of Guardian Agents that perform 360-degree monitoring of the company’s agentic model, interceding if necessary. Confidential Core Software Stack runs on private, public & neo-cloud infrastructure, works across clouds, and is vendor-independent.
