AWS Summit: NIST Secures High-Performance Computing Against Evolving Threats
Yang Guo, Computer Scientist, NIST
High-performance computing (HPC) systems provide fundamental computing infrastructure for government and industry. Security is critical for these systems that play a pivotal role in economic competitiveness and scientific discovery.
At the AWS Summit in Washington, D.C., National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Computer Scientist Yang Guo said that efficient encryption and zone-based reference architectures can enhance HPC security without impacting performance. Guo, who leads the NIST HPC Security Working Group, said that collaboration and knowledge sharing can help buttress HPC security, even in cloud environments.
Guo also discussed HPC focus areas like confidential computing, zero trust, supply chain security and integrating AI for early detection of anomalies.
