Amazon Web Services has announced the general availability of AWS Nitro Enclaves to helps users reduce the attack surface for their applications by providing a trusted, highly isolated, and hardened environment for data processing.

Nitro Enclaves How It Works Process Flow

Nitro Enclaves uses the same Nitro Hypervisor technology that creates the CPU and memory isolation among EC2 instances, to create the isolation between an Enclave and an EC2 instance.

An enclave is created by partitioning the CPU and memory of an EC2 instance, called a parent instance. You can create enclaves with varying combinations of CPU cores and memory. Above is an example using m5.4xlarge split into a parent instance (14 vCPU, 32 GiB Memory) and Enclave (2 vCPU, 32 GiB Memory). Communication between the parent instance and the enclave is done via a secure local connection called vsock.
