Very intersting solution in a world of unsecure cores (with no exception). Too bad AMD vulnerable core has not a solution like this in development. A good manner to retain market share in mission critical servers.
Obviously, you have to trust the implementation of the security chip you are using. This is why Google and Apple have both designed their own security chips.
The market for these is the Chinese government/military, who obviously trust themselves. There's good reason other people would not trust this particular implementation, but if you are paranoid enough to distrust your processor, you are paranoid enough to in-house your own implementation.
I am confused. I thought that the export of Xeon chips to mainland China was no longer permitted. So how would a university in China be involved with the design of those chips?

Lol, great way to secure a vulnerable chip with another ... vulnerable chip.Gondalf - Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - link

Yes, a security solution developed by a Chinese university, definitely not going to be back-doored in any way.FreckledTrout - Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - link

Intel/Xeon/China/Security...Do I need to comment to really point out the nonsense?!!!!

Did you point out the nonsense when AMD sold cpu tech to the Chinese?alfalfacat - Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - link
