Chip design hardwires security: new microprocessor architecture keeps hackers at bay without compromising security

Article Abstract:

Researchers at Princeton University have developed a new chip architecture that could receive sensitive information for a short time and then cleared out of the device that accessed it. The security is built in as a hardware mechanism and the storage root key functions like a master key that allows access to secure files.
