# Confidential Containers (CoCo) Project > The Confidential Containers (CoCo) Project is an open-source initiative under the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) that integrates Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs) with Kubernetes. It aims to standardize how containerized workloads are deployed in hardware-encrypted enclaves to protect data in use from infrastructure providers and malicious insiders. The project leverages existing technologies like Kata Containers to provide a seamless operator experience for confidential computing. - URL: https://optimly.ai/brand/confidential-containers-coco-project - Slug: confidential-containers-coco-project
