The UK Government announced it would invest 36 million in helping develop a new secure chip architecture. The money is funding the Capability Hardware Enhanced RISC Instructions (CHERI) Project, a new chip architecture designed by Cambridge University. The announcement itself is vague, simply saying it is working with Softbank-owned Arm to develop new chip technologies that are more resistant to cyber threats The money will help Arm develop a working board using the CHERI architecture. Some in the technology space welcomed the news, others were more measured in their response.”]
