ARM-based PC shipments are forecasted to have 25% market share by 2027, yet not all software supports these cutting-edge devices. ThreatDown solutions will help organizations stay ahead of the threat landscape and offer protection for all ARM-powered devices.
“As ARM architecture continues to gain traction across a broad range of devices—from personal computers to cloud servers—ensuring robust security measures for these systems is crucial,” said Bob Shaker, VP Cybersecurity Product and Services, Malwarebytes. “While there may be no known exploits or zero-days against ARM architecture today, we’re ready for the threats that will come tomorrow. Our customers will have the peace of mind to secure their next generation of hardware from the ever-evolving threat landscape.”
“Artificial intelligence is the future, and that AI future will soon run not only in the cloud but also on endpoint devices,” said Frank Dickson, Group Vice President, Security & Trust, IDC. “AI processors will leverage both ARM and x86 instruction sets, and the resulting AI devices will require sophisticated protection regardless of the architecture.”
