An introduction to ACL

ACL represents a significant step forward in the realm of confidential computing. Unlike traditional cloud data storage, where data may be accessible to cloud service providers and their infrastructure, Confidential Ledger takes data protection to a higher level. This innovative service allows organizations to secure their most critical and sensitive data while maintaining the benefits of cloud scalability, availability, and cost-effectiveness.

The core principle of ACL lies in the concept of confidential computing. It leverages Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs) to protect data and code from unauthorized access, even from the cloud provider itself. This ensures that data remains encrypted and is only processed in secure enclaves, thus shielding it from any potential breaches or attacks that may occur in the cloud environment.

One of the key features that sets ACL apart is its tamper-resistant nature. Data stored within the ledger is immutable, meaning...
