Memory-Based Cyberattacks Become More Complex, Difficult To Detect
By John Koon - 03 Nov, 2022 - Comments: 0

Memories are becoming entry points for cyber attacks, raising concerns about system-level security because memories are nearly ubiquitous in electronics and breaches are difficult to detect. There is no end in sight with hackers taking aim at almost every consumer, industrial, and commercial segment, and a growing number of those devices connected to the internet and to each other. According... » read more

By Marcel van Loon - 03 Nov, 2022 - Comments: 0

Internet of Things (IoT) devices are everywhere these days adding tremendous value, but unfortunately also representing unprecedented levels of risk for exploitation. Anything that is connected to the internet is potentially hackable. Securing connected devices is a challenge and is top of mind for electronics manufacturers who want to avoid the embarrassment of having their devices hacked. The... » read more

What You Need To Know About Qualifying Tools For DO-254 Programs
By Jake Wiltgen - 03 Nov, 2022 - Comments: 0

By Michelle Lange and Tammy Reeve, Patmos Engineering Services, and Jacob Wiltgen, Siemens EDA DO-254, which is required for airborne electronics development, is a design assurance standard. Design assurance requires multiple layers of review and verification within the development process to ensure safe operation of the design being produced. This means when an engineer is doing design work... » read more

AI Feeds Vision Processor, Image Sensor Boom
By SE Staff - 03 Nov, 2022 - Comments: 0

Vision systems are rapidly becoming ubiquitous, driven by big improvements in image sensors as well as new types of sensors. While the sensor itself often is developed using mature-node silicon, increasingly it is connected to vision processors developed at the most advanced process nodes. That allows for the highest performance per watt, and it also allows designs to incorporate AI accelera... » read more

Post-Quantum And Pre-Quantum Security Issues Grow
By Marie C. Baca - 03 Nov, 2022 - Comments: 2

General-purpose quantum computers will be able to crack the codes that protect much of the world’s information, and while these machines don’t exist yet, security experts say governments and businesses are starting to prepare for encryption in a post-quantum world. The task is made all the more challenging because no one knows exactly how future quantum machines will work, or even which mat... » read more

Glitched On Earth By Humans
By Jasper van Woudenberg - 03 Nov, 2022 - Comments: 0

The Black Hat conference always brings up interesting and current research within the device security industry. Lennert Wouters of COSIC studied the security of the Starlink User Terminal. After some PCB-level reverse engineering, he found a serial port and observed various boot loaders, U-boot, and Linux running on the device. However, there was no obvious way to gain further access. The... » read more
