EscrowAI - Secure AI Lifecycle Management Platform
by BeeKeeperAI, Inc.
Accelerating the ML workflow computing on protected data within a Trusted Execution Environment
Are you an algorithm or analytic model developer interested in:
- Computing on privacy-protected information, including personally identifiable information and other protected information?
- Ensuring end-to-end encryption of your model's intellectual property?
- Streamlining and accelerating the approvals, contracting, and data governance approvals?
Are you a data steward, responsible for protecting data privacy and sovereignty, who is interested in:
- Enabling the ethical monetization of data to advance innovation?
- Maintaining control (sovereignty) of your data at all times?
- Utilizing end-to-end encryption to eliminate the need for de-identification and protecting your data?
- Facilitating computing on multi-locational data that cannot be moved?
EscrowAI is a privacy-enhancing collaboration platform that accelerates the ML lifecycle by protecting data sovereignty, individual privacy, and intellectual property. The platform enables multi-party workflow between algorithm owners and the stewards of personally identifiable and protected information. With EscrowAI, data remains within the data steward’s secure cloud environment and is made available for computation within a hardware-based Trusted Execution Environment (TEE). The TEE runs in the data steward's cloud, enabled by cutting-edge Azure confidential computing technology. EscrowAI delivers encrypted algorithms and encrypted data to the TEE. Once inside, both are decrypted in the TEE’s protected memory and the computation is executed. Only a predetermined output is allowed out of the TEE after verification by EscrowAI. Once the computation is complete, the TEE is decommissioned.
Secure Access to Protected Data, Faster
It typically takes 6-12 months to secure the required approvals, when even possible, to compute on real-world protected information. Due to the data privacy, security, sovereignty, and intellectual property benefits of EscrowAI, approvals can take less than 1 month and provide access to data that has been historically inaccessible.
Data Stewards Retain Control of Their Data
Data Stewards are responsible for protecting data under their control. With EscrowAI, data is kept within the Data Steward organization’s Azure Cloud environment and never leaves its jurisdictional boundaries. The data steward retains 100% control of the data.
Algorithm Intellectual Property is Protected
Developers encrypt their algorithms and analytic models, which are decrypted only within a TEE.
Confidential Computing Environments Protect Data in Use
Data and models are isolated in confidential virtual machine and confidential container environments. Secure attestation ensures the authenticity and integrity of the compute space, which is protected from other workloads and any hosting environment in the TEE.
Strong Encryption Protects Data at Rest and in Transit
Data is encrypted using AES-256 encryption. All connections use TLS-encrypted communication.
Full Traceability
An immutable record of the computing cycles are retained via Azure confidential ledger and archived for complete traceability.
