32-bit microcontrollers are based on robust security
Availability of the SAM L10 and SAM L11 family of 32-bit microcontrollers (MCUs) from Microchip Technology has been announced by RS Components. Supporting development kits that enable users to experience the high performance levels and integrated hardware-based security delivered by these new Arm Cortex-powered MCUs are also in stock.
Military strength showcases single-company approach
Worldwide design and manufacture of power conversion and distribution systems is the result of the formation of Coolisys, the power, defence and aerospace systems provider, which includes Gresham Power.
The Quantum Revolution joint white paper released
As innovators continue to make progress with quantum computers, organisations that process sensitive data for ten or more years, such as governments, financial services and healthcare, need to start planning for a post-quantum computing world.
FPGA and 32-bit MCU add punch to development board
The MKR VIDOR 4000 development board from Arduino is in stock at Mouser Electronics. The MKR VIDOR 4000 lets engineers essentially create their own controller board, boasting an array of robust hardware plus Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity on top of an Intel Cyclone 10 field programmable gate array (FPGA) and Microchip SAM D21 microcontroller.
Security research reveals password inadequacy still a top threat
New research from the WatchGuard Threat Lab shows the emergence of the Mimikatz credential-stealing malware as a top threat and the growing popularity of brute force login attacks against web applications. The research also reveals that 50% of government and military employee LinkedIn passwords, largely from the US, were weak enough to be cracked in less than two days.
Who’s riding the cryptocurrency wave?
Cryptocurrency’s penetration into public consciousness owes a debt to Bitcoin’s astronomical rise in value. On 17th December2017, Bitcoin stock reached an all-time high of $20,089 per BTC.
Low-cost USB dongle for wireless designs
Nordic Semiconductor has designed the nRF52840 dongle (Distribution: Rutronik) as a suitable front-end, physical gateway for the „nRF Connect for Desktop“ PC tool. It allows developers to immediately connect a PC to a wireless device. This further simplifies application design and product development process.
Protect in-vehicle networks from hackers with development kit
Microchip Technology has announced the CryptoAutomotive In-Vehicle Network (IVN) TrustAnchor/Border Security Device (TA/BSD) development kit. This tool enables OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers to introduce security to networked vehicle systems, starting in areas of priority, with the highest level of protection and without disruption elsewhere.
