A novel Technology Access Programme will deliver UK technology companies with training and opportunities to block cyber vulnerabilities, and lead to a safer digital future.<\/h2>\n

This innovative programme will utilise the Digital Security by Design<\/a> (DSbD) technologies prototyped in the Arm Morello board.<\/p>\n

Digital Catapult has received \u00a32m funding to deliver the UK technology community a succession of events, workshops, and cohorts of companies\u2019 hands-on experience of the novel technologies.<\/p>\n

The programme will enable companies to access the wider community of technology stakeholders, enhancing their comprehension of DSbD technologies and how these can be advantageous to their company as well as their consumers.<\/p>\n

Addressing computer vulnerability<\/h3>\n

For the last few decades, computers have been exposed to cyber security threats, with new software generally resulting in further vulnerabilities, while not addressing the fundamental problems.<\/p>\n

The \u00a370m DSbD programme has been introduced to facilitate industry experts in their task of fixing these difficulties and establishing a transformative shift in cyber security and a safer digital future.<\/p>\n

On top of revealing the Technology Access Programme, the DSbD challenge has also launched the Software Ecosystem Development competition.<\/p>\n

Software Ecosystem Development<\/h3>\n

The DSbD software ecosystem has been shaped across all manufacturing and academic communities that play a role in securing computer systems.<\/p>\n

It has a key part to play in the success of this step-change technology in order for it to be implemented and become widespread in commercial software and open-software communities.<\/p>\n

The competition\u2019s objective is to enlarge the DSbD software ecosystem by backing projects across industry and academia.<\/p>\n

The projects will provide assistance to engineers and developers with:<\/p>\n
