GPU computing is the use of Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) to perform general-purpose scientific and engineering computing tasks that go beyond traditional graphics rendering. By leveraging the parallel processing capabilities of GPUs, security systems can perform complex tasks such as real-time threat detection, encryption, decryption, and deep packet inspection more efficiently and at higher speeds than traditional CPUs. This accelerated processing capability enables more effective monitoring, quicker response times to potential threats, and the handling of advanced cryptographic algorithms, thereby strengthening an organization’s overall performance and data security posture.
