We introduced Arm Total Design a year ago to address these challenges by creating an ecosystem of partners to accelerate the development of custom silicon, bringing together key industry players to build solutions for the datacenters of the future with Arm Compute Subsystems (CSS). It has quickly grown into a multivendor, Arm-based chiplet and SoC ecosystem, bringing together capabilities from design through to foundry manufacturing and doubling to nearly 30 participating companies, with Alcor Micro, Egis, PUF Security and SEMIFIVE as the latest companies to join the ecosystem.

FIDO seminar highlights security
2024.04.25
The first Fast IDentity Online (FIDO) Device Onboard (FDO) seminar, hosted by Academia Sinica, was held yesterday in Taipei, highlighting Taiwan’s status as a hub for the global tech supply chain.
Taiwan’s promotion of “information security equates to national security” aligns with the prevalence of the “zero trust” concept among other foreign governments, as all governments and companies seek to develop more secure networks and systems.
FIDO Alliance members Intel, Dell, Qualcomm, ARM, Amazon, Google and Microsoft have recently jointly completed a proof of concept of a new technology that would help the FIDO Alliance promote a certification program that would encourage all supply chain owners around the globe to begin focusing on Internet of Things (IoT) security.
