A new open standard locks AI weights to approved hardware
OPAQUE, a confidential computing company, released Weight Custody Manifest, an open standard that allows artificial intelligence (AI) model builders to control when and where their model weights decrypt after leaving their servers. The specification includes a Python SDK and a test suite with 91 cases, available as a developer preview. The standard targets enterprises fine-tuning open-source AI models.
Why it matters: AI developers and enterprises need mechanisms to protect model weights in untrusted environments; this standard provides a tool to enforce hardware-based decryption controls and prevent unauthorized model inspection.
