Discover how the 4th Gen Intel Xeon Processor is revolutionizing enterprise security with advanced threat protection, cloud security, and hardware security. Learn how to improve your IT infrastructure and protect your organization from cyber threats with this powerful solution.

To learn more about how Intel solves enterprise security challenges, I had a conversation with Brian Richardson, who is the Security Marketing Lead for Intel Data Center & AI (DCAI) Marketing Product Strategy.


The key takeaways of the conversation are as follows:

• The main challenges that enterprises face in securing their infrastructure are the increasing number of cyberattacks, increasing regulation, and increased security spending. The traditional software approach to cyber security is no longer enough to stop attacks, which are becoming increasingly more sophisticated.
• Confidential computing is a newer approach to protect data when it is in use, not just at rest or in transit, which is being focused on by Intel and the industry.
• The fourth-generation Intel Scalable Processor addresses enterprise security needs by using technology, such as Intel SGX or Software Guard Extensions, to protect data in use.
