Nillion

Nillion

Nillion is a decentralized secure computation network that enables privacy-preserving storage and processing of sensitive data without decryption. Using Multi-Party Computation, Homomorphic Encryption, and Trusted Execution Environments, it offers nilDB for encrypted distributed storage, nilCC for private compute in TEEs, and nilAI for confidential LLM inference — targeting AI, DeFi, and identity applications where data privacy is critical.

Overview

Nillion is a decentralized network that decentralizes trust for sensitive data, enabling computation directly on encrypted information. Described as a “blind computer,” it shifts trust from organizational promises to mathematical guarantees using MPC, Homomorphic Encryption, and TEEs. Developers access these capabilities through an SDK without managing cryptographic infrastructure directly.

Key Features

  • nilDB — Encrypted distributed storage using secret sharing across multiple nodes
  • nilCC — Private compute nodes running applications inside Trusted Execution Environments with cryptographic verification
  • nilAI — Confidential LLM inference via an OpenAI-compatible API
  • Multi-primitive security — Combines MPC, HE, and TEEs for layered privacy guarantees
  • Chain integrations — Ecosystem connections with NEAR, Aptos, and Arbitrum
