VIA Releases PadLock SDK for Linux-Based Information Security Software Developers
To combat the increasing reliance on security software programs that draw heavily on PC system resources and hamper overall performance, VIA developed the PadLock Hardware Security Suite to complement software programs by taking on much of the heavy lifting involved with information security applications. Featured in all VIA processors based on the C5P Nehemiah core, the VIA Hardware Security Suite offers quantum-based random number generation with the VIA PadLock RNG (Random Number Generator) and AES encryption at blistering speeds through the VIA PadLock ACE (Advanced Cryptography Engine).
