CTHR-01 beta (Limited Edition)

Based on AMD Alveo™ U50 Framework

What is CTHR-01?

CTHR-01 is the world’s first quantum- inspired security processor. It operates as a PCIe security accelerator that can be inserted into any compatible server or PC — just like installing an Nvidia GPU card. CTHR-01 uses its quantum-inspired security framework (QE-BCP) and its Autonomous Cyber Immune System (ACIS) at the hardware level — offering advanced security against ever-evolving cyber threats and quantum threats, setting a new standard in hardware security.
