Here's a deep dive into the technology that powers Sui Sentinel. We'll be looking into the Nautilus framework and how it enables our off-chain computation to remain secure.
Sui Sentinel leverages a hybrid on-chain/off-chain model to enable complex AI interactions without sacrificing trust. Our AI agent server operates within a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE), specifically using AWS Nitro Enclaves. This TEE guarantees that the AI's computations are isolated and tamper-proof.
The core innovation lies in the verifiable off-chain computation. After the AI agent processes an attack prompt, its response is cryptographically signed within the TEE. This digital signature acts as an unchangeable proof of the computation's integrity. The signature and the result are then recorded on the Sui blockchain via a Move smart contract. This approach allows for cost-effective and high-performance AI operations while retaining the transparency and trust of a decentralized system.
In essence, the Nautilus framework facilitates this secure bridge, allowing players to trust that the AI's response is authentic and hasn't been tampered with. This is crucial for the game's economic model, where a successful attack (breaking the agent) and a failed attack (earning fees for the defender) are both verified on-chain, creating a fair and secure environment.
