While confidential computing enhances security, it introduces challenges, particularly in complexity. Managing secure enclaves involves significant overhead, including handling encryption keys and attestation protocols. The setup and maintenance of these secure environments require specialised knowledge and careful management to ensure that all components function correctly and securely. Additionally, integrating confidential computing into existing workflows and systems can be complex and may require significant modifications. Although performance overhead is generally minimal with current enclave technologies, organisations must still weigh the trade-offs between the added security benefits and the complexity of implementing and managing secure enclaves. Despite these challenges, the enhanced security for sensitive data during processing makes confidential computing a valuable approach.
