Gathering micro-messages, recently published by Forbes, has written the status of the Chinese Internet of Things industry in recent years as an observer from abroad. The article points out:
The Chinese government has promulgated policies related to the Internet of Things since 2010, and its ambitious goal is to reach 163 billion U.S. dollars by 2020. However, as the annual growth rate in the past few years has reached 20%, the Chinese economy The Information Society now believes that China's IoT market will exceed US$230 billion by 2020. To lead the autonomous traffic and other IoT solutions, China is actively recruiting artificial intelligence and big data from the United States and elsewhere. Experts in the cutting-edge field. The Chinese market is extremely dynamic and highly competitive, not only between big companies, but also numerous start-up companies are working hard to beat the current leading companies.
To be sure, in the field of the Internet of Things, China has transformed from a technological imitator to a technological innovator.
Nowadays, the world has actively embraced the Internet of Everything, and more and more companies have begun to evaluate and increase the deployment of the Internet of Things. Semiconductor manufacturers are one of the core strengths of the Internet of Things (IoT) industry. The chips for IoT devices have become the key to industrial development. The foreign chip companies all rushed to the beach and actively promoted the development of the Internet of Things chips and their applications.
Hangzhou Zhongtian Microsystems Co., Ltd. ('Zhongtianwei') focuses on 32-bit high-performance, low-power embedded CPUs and is licensed on the Internet of Things (IoT) chip architecture. For more than a decade, China Sky Microsystems has always insisted on independent innovation. Concept, development of the international advanced level of embedded CK-CPU, its embedded CPU core with low power consumption, high performance, high code density and easy to use and so on.
With its more than 10 years of continuous investment in research and development of embedded CPU, Zhongtianwei has connected with the Internet of Things in artificial intelligence, security chips, consumer electronics, intelligent monitoring, multimedia, information security, Bluetooth and NB-IoT. Into the technical field has accumulated a solid technical strength, can cover a variety of high, medium and low embedded applications. Its series of CPU family CK802 series processors with its own domestic, safe, reliable, superior performance in the market stand out.
IoT application just opened the tip of the iceberg, security issues are urgently needed
IDC predicts that as many as 50 billion smart devices will be connected to the Internet worldwide by 2020. These smart devices include smart phones, personal wearable devices, smart IC cards, smart cars, smart streetlights, etc. However, for the moment, The Internet of Things is only the tip of the iceberg. However, the Internet of Things's need for security has become an urgent issue.
Strategy Analytics has pointed out that the number one issue of the Internet of Things remains a security issue, driven by the growing volume of data and processes that make it a key challenge for any deployment.
Let's look at some actual IoT application scenarios:
Security system. Imagine a house equipped with a security system that calls the dispatch center when the alarm is triggered. When the power is turned off, the security system will not operate. Before the security personnel arrives, the windows of the house may have been damaged. The interior of the house may be damaged. Stolen away.
Wireless technology. All data transmitted using wireless technology is fully encrypted. However, the user who records the encrypted data (such as user name and password) and replays the data can still obtain the data without decryption at all.
Wi-Fi. Imagine that someone has been monitoring the Wi-Fi communication of a house for several days in a row. Well, he will soon know if someone is at home. In other words, even using what we call a secure Wi-Fi connection, we Still spreading the message when we are at home and at home.
These simple examples will allow you to understand why security issues, especially IoT security issues, are extremely urgent and challenging. Moreover, in the era of IoE, all networked devices were potential targets for hackers. Regardless of size, the harm is equally great.
It is worth noting that the security of the Internet of Things must be rooted in the underlying hardware. It must have a chip-independent root of trust. Without a trusted chip platform, network security, device security will lose its fulcrum.
Zhongtian Micro has been deeply pursuing safety technology for a long time. It is currently the only CPU IP provider with a self-instruction-based secure processor architecture and large-scale commercial use. It has a variety of key technologies and more than 20 security mechanisms in the security field. As the only CPU participating unit of the domestic financial IC card replacement project, its research and development of the CPU core and security technology have been selected by domestic related financial IC card design companies. The related financial IC products designed have been certified by UnionPay Security.
Taking the embedded CPU-CK802 processor independently developed by Zhongtian Micro as an example, the processor is characterized by extremely low power consumption and extremely low cost. It has 32-bit CPU operating efficiency and performance at the cost of 8-bit CPU. Provides comprehensive and multi-level security protection technologies, including anti-physical attack technology, program tamper-proof program signature technology, and trusted execution technology for anti-software attacks.
Zhongtian Micro CK series embedded CPU series processors have a trusted implementation technology based on lightweight virtualization, which can virtualize trusted and untrusted worlds and support secure data protection for the trusted world. Provides multiple layers of trusted protection functions such as trusted interrupt response and trusted debugging. The full range of CPU application areas includes smart card applications, smart metering products, low-cost microcontrollers, wireless sensor networks, etc. Smart, Internet of Things wireless access technology, consumer electronics and other major areas.
Filling the blank of domestically-manufactured and secure embedded processors, the prospects of Zhongtian's CPU market are optimistic
In the past, the market for embedded processors that were self-developed and targeted at the security sector has been left blank for a long time. After years of painstaking research, Zhongtian Micro has continuously optimized and perfected. Currently, various series of CPU products have been formed, covering artificial intelligence, and the Internet of Things. , audio and video, information security, network communications and industrial control and other fields. These products not only fill this market gap, but also by the industry's customers affirmed.
Since the launch, many companies have signed cooperation agreements with Zhongtian. The market and sales prospects are broad.
