Model Types

There are currently two leading models of TEEs:

  • Process-based: current implementations include Intel’s SGX (Software Guard eXtensions).

  • VM-based: current implementations include AMD’s SEV (Secure Encrypted Virtualization).

It’s crucial that we know the same attack vector used to compromise one of the models would not be useful in the other.
