Computing's Hidden Menace: The OCP Takes Action Against Silent Data Corruption (SDC)

In the realm of computing systems, there lurks an insidious threat - Silent Data Corruption (SDC). A hardware-induced SDC is an error that occurs when data is corrupted within a computing system, often without any indication from the built-in error detection mechanisms. This can happen due to manufa (...)
