PCI Express Security and TEE Integration, Part 1 - Establishing Trust

Protecting processor memory alone is no longer sufficient. The entire I/O path must become part of the trusted computing architecture. To address this challenge, PCI-SIG® has developed a suite of complementary security technologies, including Data Object Exchange (DOE), Component Measurement and Authentication (CMA), Integrity and Data Encryption (IDE), and the TEE Device Interface Security Protocol (TDISP).

How a Multi-Protocol PHY Simplifies Physical AI Connectivity

Physical AI systems must move large amounts of data across two very different connectivity domains. Accelerators and local storage need high-bandwidth, low-latency links close to the compute SoC, while sensors and control modules require reliable connectivity across the larger platform. Supporting both domains with separate high-speed PHYs can increase silicon area and integration complexity.
