Helius has added encrypted transfer processing to its 
Solana infrastructure through Privacy Rings. The default prover is designed to protect secret inputs while allowing the system to retain operator trust, according to the company’s coverage reported by CryptoSlate.
The mechanism uses an AWS enclave as the protected environment for the prover. CryptoSlate reports that users do not need to surrender control of the process entirely: wallets remain responsible for approving the code and policies that govern the protection. This places a verification layer around sensitive transaction inputs without making approval dependent solely on the infrastructure operator.
CryptoSlate is the only outlet included in the supplied coverage, so there is no independent corroboration of the implementation details. Its account emphasizes the enclave-based protection and wallet approval model; no additional figures, technical benchmarks or outside assessments were provided.
