Nvidia introduces Scale-In for AI agent security
SiliconANGLE: As AI agents take control, Nvidia rethinks the security playbook
Nvidia Corp. recently added a new pillar to its AI networking infrastructure with the unveiling of Scale-In. Scale-In brings purpose-built acceleration to secure, manage and operate agentic AI factories. It is designed to deliver secure access, high-performance data movement, tenant isolation, simpler operations and more predictable performance as agents assume increasingly larger roles within AI […] The post As AI agents take control, Nvidia rethinks the security playbook appeared first o
Nvidia has introduced a new infrastructure component called Scale-In designed to provide security, management, and operation of AI agents running in data centers. As AI agents take on larger roles in these facilities, they require enhanced security measures to ensure agents remain isolated in their designated areas and do not perform unauthorized actions. Scale-In uses specialized hardware including data processing units with built-in security engines that monitor agent behavior independently, combined with software tools that govern agent execution and can quarantine agents that attempt to exceed their defined boundaries. This represents a shift in how data center security must be approached as autonomous AI agents become more prevalent in enterprise systems.

Ars Live: What drone attacks on data centers mean for modern life in the cloud
Drone and missile strikes have inflicted unprecedented damage on data centers in Eastern Europe and the Middle East this year, disrupting cloud services for millions of people and permanently deleting some Amazon Web Services customer data. This trend represents a new concern for Big Tech companies—but also for governments and everyone else who depends on common digital services in modern life. To explore what this all means for modern society’s reliance on cloud resilience, I will be hosting a
Nebius tests the neocloud playbook with $40 billion in planned spending
Nebius plans to fund its $40 billion AI infrastructure expansion through customer prepayments and loans, even as delays at a Microsoft data center raise questions about its financing model.
SoftBank’s billion-dollar loss may have put a cap on AI’s natural gas ambitions
SoftBank lost over $3 billion pre-ordering natural gas turbines to power AI data centers. Here's what the loss means to power markets.
IBM Announces IBM Quantum Nighthawk r3: A New Processor to Support 10k Quantum Operations on 520 Programmable Qubits
IBM has announced IBM Quantum Nighthawk r3, its next superconducting quantum processor. It is designed to run 10,000 quantum operations accurately across 520 programmable qubits. In 2027, IBM plans to link 2 r3 chips into a single 1,040-qubit system. For developers, the announcement is speed. The current Nighthawk r2 already runs workloads up to 19x faster than IBM’s earlier processors. TL;DR Size: Nighthawk r3: 520 programmable qubits, 2,034 physical qubits, 10 l-couplers. Nightha
Why the data center you dread might never even be built
The data center boom is running into serious real-world obstacles, from widespread local opposition and permitting delays to a scramble for electricity. Before those challenges even come into play, though, there’s a more basic problem: A lot of the projects being announced may never get built in the first place. With billions of dollars in AI infrastructure […]
