"Unhackable? New chip makes the computer an unsolvable puzzle"

A new computer processor architecture called MORPHEUS could usher in a future where computers proactively defend against threats.  It would be able to render the current electronic security model of bugs and patches obsolete.  MORPHEUS has been developed at the University of Michigan. The way it works is that the chip blocks potential attacks by encrypting and randomly reshuffling key bits of its own code and data 20 times per second–infinitely faster than a human hacker can work and thousands of times faster than even the fastest electronic hacking techniques.
