Nvidia strongly refuted allegations from the Chinese government regarding its chips, stating there are no backdoors or kill switches. The company highlighted the importance of building trustworthy systems without such vulnerabilities. The Cyberspace Administration of China raised concerns about alleged tracking capabilities and remote shutdown features. Meanwhile, US lawmakers are considering a bill that mandates location verification features in exported chips to prevent misuse. Nvidia argues that such proposals could compromise security instead of enhancing it. The company maintains that any remote access to their chips is non-existent, advocating for no government-imposed backdoors.
Nvidia Chief Security Officer David Reber Jr. emphasized the integrity of their products by stating, 'There are no back doors in NVIDIA chips. No kill switches. No spyware. That's not how trustworthy systems are built—and never will be.'
The Cyberspace Administration of China raised concerns about Nvidia's chips at a meeting, alleging they possess tracking features and can be remotely shut down, which Nvidia strongly disputed.
Nvidia refuted the Chinese government's claims, asserting, 'does not have 'backdoors' in our chips that would give anyone a remote way to access or control them.'
Senator Tom Cotton expressed the necessity of legislative measures to ensure that advanced American chips do not fall into adversarial hands, underscoring security in technology exports.
