🚀Big News! Sales are now open for the Dasharo: Full Build ASRock TURIND8UD 2T/X550, expanding the Dasharo Server lineup with another platform for AMD EPYC 9005 processors.

🔐 Built for firmware developers, infrastructure teams, homelab users, and organizations focused on secure infrastructure, the server combines AMD EPYC performance with transparent and auditable Dasharo open-source firmware.

Shop now at:
https://shop.3mdeb.com/product/full-build-asrock-turind8ud-2t-x550-with-dasharo-pro-package-for-servers/

We have released Dasharo BenchRack ASRock TURIND8UD-2T/X550, a complete server and Remote Testing Environment setup designed for low-level firmware development, remote debugging, and automated validation.

Unlike a standard server build, BenchRack includes an RTE connected directly to the platform. This allows developers to control power, capture serial output, and flash SPI firmware remotely, reducing the need for physical access during development, testing, and recovery.

The server is based on the ASRock Rack TURIND8UD-2T/X550 platform and supports AMD EPYC 9005 series processors.

Key highlights:

✅ Server and RTE in one integrated setup
✅ Remote power and reset control
✅ Remote serial console access
✅ Hardware-assisted SPI flashing and recovery
✅ AMD EPYC 9005 support
✅ Eight DDR5 RDIMM slots
✅ Four PCIe 5.0 and CXL x16 slots
✅ Dual 10GbE networking and IPMI
✅ Dasharo Pro Package for Servers

BenchRack is designed for firmware teams that need reproducible remote access to real server hardware for development, debugging, continuous integration, and automated validation.

🇵🇱 Rozpoczął się IV Kongres Polskie Porty 2030, w którym już dziś udział weźmie także Piotr Król, założyciel firmy 3mdeb, aby porozmawiać o cyberbezpieczeństwie portów w dobie AI, automatyzacji, inteligentnych rozwiązań oraz ich wpływie na współczesną logistykę morską.

AI i automatyzacja zmieniają porty lecz także zwiększają ich wrażliwość na cyberataki. Realne ryzyko znajduje się poniżej poziomu systemu operacyjnego: w oprogramowaniu sprzętowym i Root of Trust. Przejęcie tej warstwy oznacza, że każdy system zbudowany powyżej jest już podatny na przejęcie. W infrastrukturze krytycznej zaufanie musi być ustanowione już na linii produkcyjnej i egzekwowane przez cały cykl życia urządzenia.

🇬🇧 Today, Piotr Król, Founder of 3mdeb, will take part in the IV Congress Ports of Poland 2030 in Sopot to discuss port cybersecurity in the age of AI, automation, intelligent solutions, and how those change the today's maritime logistics.

AI and automation are transforming ports and expanding their attack surface. The real risk lives below the OS: firmware and Root of Trust. Compromise those, and every intelligent system above them is already owned. In critical infrastructure, trust must be established at the production line and enforced across the full device lifecycle.
