By GlobalDataAlexander Lange, Founding Partner at Inflection.xyz said: “We believe that AI’s bottlenecks won’t be software development, tooling or algorithms but access to raw compute and high-quality data sets. Tune Insight is making a breakthrough contribution to the latter by building an operating system for model training on confidential data without leakage.”
The company also offers its solution for other sectors which include cybersecurity, financial services and insurance. And are involved with projects with the procurement branch of the Swiss military, to enhance collective cyber resilience against cyberattacks.
Juan R. Troncoso Pastoriza, CEO of Tune Insight said: “In a data-driven world, protecting data not only at rest and in transit, but also in-use, is paramount. Combined with the increasing need for organizations to work together with others, both for collaborations and valorization, and progress towards more protections for citizens and customer data through regulations like GDPR, robust applied cryptography solutions that combine the best privacy-enhancing technologies are of greatest importance in all domains.”
