Experiements on Morello board developed by Arm and Cambridge University find huge potential in its crime-fighting capabilities.
A new prototype technology has the potential to revolutionize cybersecurity, making it possible for businesses to prevent the majority of cyberattacks with ease.
In a joint project developed by ARM and the University of Cambridge, world-renowned for its computer science pedigree, the prototype processor was used in experiments by various companies for six months as part of the Technology Access Programme, courtesy of Digital Catapult with support from the University of Cambridge and Arm.
As a result of this programme, 27 of the participating companies gathered Digital Catapult’s London HQ to demonstrate their findings, and many were impressed it seems with the prototype’s ability to defend against memory-related cyberattacks.Bad memory
Attacks that can corrupt computer memory, such as buffer overflow attacks, can allow threat actors to perform DDoS attacks and remote takeovers via malware, which can then lead to ransomware attacks too.
