Purple Mountain Laboratories says its new self-contained microcomputer is much more secure and ready to plug and play in industry

A Chinese state laboratory has unveiled what it says is a self-contained microcomputer that is 100 times more resistant to hackers than standard models.

An MCU is a microcomputer mounted on a single chip and is widely used in industries such as energy and transport to perform simple control tasks.

The developers said the new MCU – about the size of a US quarter – had three cores rather than one, allowing two to function normally if one was attacked, according to the report.
