The Xeon Phi 7230 1.3 GHz Processor from Intel is a 64-core processor with a maximum memory capacity of 384GB (dependent on memory card). It features an Intel AES-NI instructions set that enables fast and secure data encryption and decryption. AES-NI is useful for a range of cryptographic applications that perform bulk encryption/decryption, authentication, random number generation, and authenticated encryption. Idle state (C-state) saves power when the processor is idle, while the thermal monitoring technologies protect the processor package and the system from thermal failure. The Execute Disable Bit is a hardware-based security feature that can reduce exposure to viruses and malicious-code attacks and prevent harmful software from executing and propagating on the server or network.
