The computer is planned to be used to protect against the penetration of hackers into the CII systems Scientists at the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (MIPT) have created a microcomputer capable of processing data without storing it, which completely protects it from viruses and hacker attacks. The new computer was called m-TrusT, its task is to be an intermediary between the device and the outside world and protect equipment from malware, Valery Konyavsky, head of the MIPT information security department, told Izvestia.
This is a single-board computer that acts as a filter between the device and computer networks. When the device is turned on, it can read, but not save information. The recording function is not provided, so viruses cannot penetrate the memory of the microcomputer, which makes it invulnerable, the authors of the development said.
The device is designed to protect the so-called critical information infrastructure (CII). We are talking about databases and devices that ensure the operation of energy, financial, industrial, transport and other critical areas.
