La veille de la cybersécurité

Chances are you're reading this blog post on a modern computer that's either on your lap or on the palm of your hand. This modern computer has a central processing unit (CPU) and other dedicated chips for specialized tasks such as graphics, audio processing, networking and sensor fusion and others. These dedicated processors can perform their specialized tasks much faster and more efficiently than a general purpose CPU. We've been pairing CPUs with a specialized processor since the early days of computing. The early 8-bit and 16-bit CPUs of the 70s were slow at performing floating-point calculation as they relied on software to emulate floating-point instructions.
