5G Eats Up More Memory
https://www.rambus.com/blogs/5g-eats-up-more-memory/5G is more memory hungry compared to previous generations, according to Gary Hilson, memory editor at EE Times. In his recent article, he pulled together an industry consensus about the types of memory that might be considered to comply with 5G demands, the pros and the cons. Hilson writes that it makes sense when you […]
Helena Handschuh’s Article: RISC-V, DARPA Advance Security
https://www.rambus.com/blogs/helena-handschuhs-article-risc-v-darpa-advance-security/Helena Handschuh wrote a recent article in EE Times stating that “with the proliferation of intelligent devices, the industry needs new robust security approaches instead of trying to fix the cracks in existing designs.” Handschuh is chair of the RISC-V Foundation’s security standing committee and a Fellow at Rambus. Titled “RISC-V, DARPA Advance Security,” the […]

According to Levine, there are two primary issues associated with CPUs, SoCs and embedded systems becoming increasingly complex. “Firstly, there are more things (components) that can be […]
Most Complex Processor Chip for AI Acceleration
https://www.rambus.com/blogs/most-complex-processor-chip-for-ai-acceleration/EE Times reports that Graphcore of Bristol, UK has put on the market a new type of processor for AI acceleration. It’s called the intelligence processing unit (IPU). According to CEO Nigel Toon, the IPU processor, is the most complex processor chip that’s ever been built. It’s described as “just shy of 24 billion transistors on a […]
Full Disk Encryption of Solid State Drives and Root of Trust
https://go.rambus.com/full-disk-encryption-of-solid-state-drives-and-root-of-trust#new_tabFile encryption, file system encryption and full disk encryption (FDE) are methods offered by the industry to allow users to protect their data stored on non-volatile storage devices, such as Solid State Disks (SSD). The main feature of FDE is to protect stored system and user date from unauthorized reading, writing, alteration, moving or rolling back. However, extended security […]
Ben Levine Writes About CMRT Benefits in Embedded Computing Design Magazine
https://www.rambus.com/blogs/cmrt-benefits-in-embedded-computing-design-magazine/Ben Levine, Sr. Director, Product Marketing, Cryptography Products Division, recently penned an article in Embedded Computing Design Magazine letting SoC and system designers know that “isolation among applications in some security processors is dicey at best. It’s best to take the right security processor route with multiple roots of trust and complete application isolation” He […]
Tech Firms Lax On Embedded Security
https://www.rambus.com/blogs/tech-firms-lax-on-embedded-security/The glaring headline in a ComputerWeekly.com post is that “Nearly a quarter of tech firms do not security check their products.” The paper’s security editor, Warwick Ashford, wrote that nearly a quarter of organizations polled do not run security checks on products, and nearly a third admitted to shipping products with known security vulnerabilities. Ashford’s […]
