What Is a Secure Research Computing Enclave?

A secure research computing enclave is a boundary around compute and data where every user has one identity, access is granted by policy, and every action is audited.

How it works

  • Every user signs in with one identity, from the organization's own identity provider.
  • Access is denied by default and granted per role.
  • Every action is logged against the person who took it.
  • Compute runs beside the data, so the data does not have to leave.

How Vantage Compute relates

Vantage Compute provides that enclave on hardware an organization already owns, so sensitive research does not have to be hosted elsewhere.
