Abstract: A remote (e.g., cloud, edge-cloud) computing environment may be improved by configuring a client device to function as an extension of the cloud computing environment, such as by coordinating the execution and processing of data on the client device. Secure content or privacy-sensitive content is protected confidentially while in a cloud computing environment or client device, and may be moved to a client device and decrypted to a client local container for various user productivity processing workloads, thereby reducing or eliminating privacy concerns. This solution also provides improved security for sharing and usage of pre-trained AI models on a client device, such as by extending attestation and provisioning capabilities from cloud computing environment into clients, and by leveraging cloud computing technology on clients that protects cloud assets. This provides an improved ability to protect trained AI models and avoid exposing an AI model training process on a client device.
