Capture Effective Hardware Security Requirements In 3 Steps


As hardware vulnerabilities continue to rise, it’s increasingly crucial for those developing semiconductors to reduce consumer and business risk by establishing comprehensive security programs. These should include a systematic process for developing security requirements, verifying them at scale throughout the design process, and producing final documentation for security sign-off before tap... » read more

Reducing Security Vulnerabilities In Connected Cars And Factories With Secured Flash


Analysts estimate that more than half of all cars sold in the U.S. this year will come with internet connectivity(1), and Gartner believes more than 750,000 cars with autonomous driving capabilities will roll off manufacturing lines by 2023(2). As more vehicles become connected and go autonomous, the possibility of bad actors taking control of cars on the road is very real, and likely to become... » read more

First Line of Defense: Developer Security Tools In The IDE


We all want to produce better and more secure software, and we want to do it faster than ever before. For developers, this means taking on more responsibility for security without sacrificing velocity, as well as learning new tools and processes that may have been prescribed by teams that are disconnected from the development process. By bringing security detection and remediation into the i... » read more

Rambus RT-640 Road To ISO26262 Certification


Modern vehicles incorporate an increasing number of complex integrated circuits. Failures in automotive systems can lead to damage to property, injury or loss of life. Ensuring the reliability of electronic systems is crucial, and the ISO26262 standard documents the requirements for determining automotive functional safety. This whitepaper details the process for how Rambus achieved t... » read more

DNA Edges Forward As Data Storage Option


At technology conferences back in 2015, scientist David Markowitz raised the idea that DNA could be adapted as a data storage material. The audience response wasn’t all he had hoped for. “They would laugh me off the podium,” Markowitz recalls, but without rancor. Facing skepticism comes with his job at IARPA, the research arm of the U.S. intelligence community. The agency anticipates f... » read more

Week In Review: Auto, Security, Pervasive Computing


Automotive, mobility Siemens Digital Industries Software and climate-tech company sustamize devised a way to add carbon emissions data to Siemens Xcelerator. Siemens created its Teamcenter Carbon Footprint Calculator software to help teams measure, simulate, reduce, and track their product carbon footprint early in the development phase. The calculator uses sustamize’s Product Footprint Engi... » read more

Using eFPGAs For Security


Andy Jaros, vice president at Flex Logix, talks about the use of eFPGAs to keep pace with security risks over longer chip lifetimes, how configurable RTL can help, and why systems companies are altering the playing field for FPGAs. » read more

Why Geofencing Will Enable L5


What will it take for a car to be able to drive itself anywhere a human can? Ask autonomous vehicle experts this question and the answer invariably includes a discussion of geofencing. In the broadest sense, geofencing is simply a virtual boundary around a physical area. In the world of self-driving cars, it describes a crucial subset of the operational design domain — the geographic regio... » read more

Week In Review: Auto, Security, Pervasive Computing


Automotive and mobility U.S. President Joe Biden announced the approval of $900 million in funding for a nationwide network of electrical vehicle charging stations in 35 states. The money is part of a multi-year, $7.5 billion plan to create 500,000 charging stations along federal highways. Industry executives told Reuters that remote human supervisors may be a permanent fixture of highly au... » read more
