 Confidential compute virtual machines (VMs) provide strong security and confidentiality for tenants. They establish a hardware-enforced boundary between your application and the virtualization stack. Clusters deployed with confidential compute VMs ensure hardware-based security and data confidentiality for sensitive workloads by establishing a trusted execution environment (TEE). For more information, see [confidential compute](/azure/confidential-computing/confidential-vm-overview) and [Azure guidance for isolated compute](/azure/confidential-computing/confidential-vm-faq).
