Security Is A Second-Class Citizen In High-Performance Computing

Vendors and operators attempt to balance power and security, but right now, power is the highest goal.
How do you keep the bad guys out of some of the world's fastest computers that store some of the most sensitive data?
That was a growing concern at last month's Supercomputing 2022 conference. Achieving the fastest system performance was a hot topic, like it is every year. But the pursuit of speed has come at the cost of securing some of these systems, which run critical workloads in science, weather modeling, economic forecasting, and national security.
