The disclosure relates to technology for secure compute. One aspect includes a network device, comprising a non-transitory memory comprising instructions; and one or more processors in communication with the non-transitory memory storage. The one or more processors execute the instructions to receive and process routing requests in a network; send an indication into the network that the network device is able to perform secure computes; perform a secure compute based on an input received via the network from an input device; ensure that a result of the secure compute is trusted as a correct result of the secure compute; and provide the trusted result of the secure compute to a result device connected to the network.
