Keynote: Future-Proofing Confidential AI - Nelly Porter, Google & Anand Pashupathy, Intel

Keynote: Future-Proofing Confidential AI - Nelly Porter, Director of Product Management, GCP Confidential Computing and Encryption, Google & Anand Pashupathy, VP /& GM, Intel Product Assurance & Security, Intel As confidential computing becomes the baseline for secure AI, the focus shifts to defending against emerging threats and accelerating complex, hardware-intensive workloads. This session details Google Cloud’s latest architectural advancements in Confidential AI. We will explore the technical integration of post-quantum cryptography (PQC) key management and the expansion of trusted execution environments (TEEs) across both CPUs and GPUs. Join us to understand the underlying infrastructure that enables the processing of highly sensitive data and the training of proprietary models with cryptographic assurance, protecting high-value AI assets against both current and horizon attack vectors.
