TAIPEI — Taiwan announced on Tuesday five critical technology fields including its defense, semiconductor and space industries that will come under its protection.
Taiwan’s Executive Yuan, its cabinet, said it has put 22 technologies on its first list of core protected sectors, because they are ahead of the curve and, hence, require urgent safeguarding. The manufacturing of integrated circuits smaller than 14 nanometers, chip security, post-quantum cryptography protection, cyber defense and wafer-level advanced chip packaging technologies are among those listed.
