Silicon Valley, California
Focused on cutting-edge security, high performance compute and machine learning.
Security, Network and Mobile Security, High Performance Computing
Qualcomm Research Silicon Valley conducts cutting-edge research in all aspects of security. We are applying analysis techniques such as machine learning on mobile devices and in the network to detect threats early. We are exploring new types of appliances and analysis techniques to thwart attackers. Some of the work has already been commercialized as Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ Smart Protect. Qualcomm is uniquely positioned to create and deploy these new paradigms of security.
