Nvidia denied the presence of backdowers in their chips

NVIDIA has stated that its chips do not contain backdowers that could give out to outsiders access to devices. About it reports CNBC.

In July, the company announced About the intention to restore the supply of Shi-chips H20 to China after approval by the US Government.

Soon, Chinese regulators called NVIDIA representatives to question the possible risks associated with chips.

The meeting with officials took place on July 31 – the parties discussed the concern related to national security.

“Cybersecurity is our main priority. There are no “backdowns” in the NVIDIA chip, which would allow someone to access or control, ”the company said on August 1.

The Cyberspace Cyberspace (CAC) has demanded that NVIDIA explanations and the provision of documentation concerning potential threats, including possible vulnerability and backdowns in H20 chip, which are supplied to China.

The regulator recalled that there were already concerns about vulnerability in American Shi Processors. The department also stressed that a number of US lawmakers called on the introduction of compulsory tracking of exports of advanced semiconductors.

According to CAC, some US experts in the field of AI have stated that there are built -in tracking and positioning mechanisms in NVIDIA products, as well as “remote shutdown”.

In May, the Republican Senator Voltton and a two-party group of eight members of Congress presented the US Chip Security Act. It obliges semiconductor manufacturers, including NVIDIA, to introduce safety and geolocation checks into advanced SI-chips.

One of the co -authors of the bill, Democrat Bill Foster, as well as independent technical experts, reported Reuters that relevant technologies are already built into NVIDIA products.

Recall that in January, the US government has implemented new restrictions on importing computer chips developed in the US in an attempt to prevent other countries from accessing advanced technologies.
