Zhang Zhongmou pays less than two months
Zhang Zhongmou, founder of TSMC, just retired on June 5th. On the evening of August 3, the most serious situation in which the machine was unable to operate due to virus infection appeared since the establishment of the company, and the impact was on bamboo, Zhongke and Nanke, and TSMC almost All Taiwan factories are affected.
Zi'an model student unexpectedly out of the package
In particular, TSMC is at the time of the sprint of the seven-nano and twelve-nano-capacity production capacity, and is the model for the protection of the entire Taiwanese security. The biggest production system since the establishment of the company has been a big blow, not only shocking the global supply chain, but also making TSMC feel Unprecedented shock and tension.
TSMC did not want to disclose the reason yesterday. It only said that the internal cause and source have been mastered. It can be judged that this is not a hacking attack, nor is someone deliberately locking the attack, and can ensure that the incident does not happen again. TSMC stressed that the virus has now Being controlled, there are also solutions, the affected machine is gradually resumed production; the degree of virus infection varies from factory to factory, some have returned to normal in a short time, and the rest is expected to return to normal within one day, that is, the slowest today.
TSMC does not comment on whether there is any incident in the incident. It only indicates that the current focus is on restoring production, and will communicate with customers. The internal responsibility is not discussed.
People familiar with security protection revealed that the people who put the virus were 'very powerful', and they were able to simultaneously spur the main production plants of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., Ltd., Zhongke and Nanke, and did not rule out the possibility of internal employees.
'The access control system is also hung up'
It is understood that TSMC found computer virus invading CIM at 10 o'clock in the evening, resulting in two Bagua factory Fab III, Fab V, and Bamboo Fab 12, Nanke Fab XIV, Zhongke Fab 15 and other 12-inch factory. Big crash. Some netizens broke the news on the kick-off kick (PTT) website, saying that 'I heard a lot of Taiwanese friends returning to the TSMC, and even the access control system is hung up.' Some even said, 'I heard the whole middle' , 'The access control crashed and then the production line crashed, I feel not simple.'
It is understood that TSMC recalled Zi'an and CIM maintenance engineers in the evening before yesterday morning and yesterday morning to fully repair. In order to avoid the theft of production secrets, the computer connection of all production systems and CIM was immediately cut off, resulting in a large factory in North, South and South. machine.
Production line crashes will affect revenue
The TSMC supply chain emphasizes that as long as the CIM is invaded by the virus, the system soft weight irrigation should be able to gradually resume production. However, market participants said that the production line will have an impact on the company's production capacity and revenue. This part is waiting for TSMC to do Further explanation.
