IPsec Security In IPv6
By Ernest Worthman - 02 Apr, 2015 - Comments: 0

IPv6 is starting to show up in around the Internet. Adoption is slow, but with the magic number of 4 billion- plus IPv4 addresses about to be reached, IPv6 will see a much faster pace of adoption as the IoE gains momentum. There is a lot of excitement about all the enhancements within IPv6. Some even claim it is the answer to Internet security. But so far it has not lived up to that promise.... » read more

3 Key IoT Benchmarks
By Ed Sperling - 23 Mar, 2015 - Comments: 0

The [getkc id="76" comment="Internet of Things"] has been billed as the next huge opportunity for semiconductors—tens of billions of things connected to a centralized infrastructure, to people, and in many cases to each other. After conducting hundreds of interviews with executives, engineers and university professors from all facets of the global supply chain over the past year and reviewin... » read more

A New Infrastructure For The IoE
By Ernest Worthman - 09 Mar, 2015 - Comments: 0

The IoE is going to change, radically, a number of paradigms. Top among them is exactly how we are going to route the yottabytes of data that will flow between objects of the IoE, which is made more difficult because 70% of that data will not be on the traditional wireless or wired pipeline. To date, lots of attention has been paid to bringing intelligent objects on line to connect everythin... » read more

Full Steam Ahead For IoT
By Ed Sperling - 05 Mar, 2015 - Comments: 0

Criticism is rampant about the [getkc id="76" comment="Internet of Things"] being partially baked, ill-defined, or just a rehash of old ideas that never got off the drawing board. While there is some basis for that criticism, it really doesn't seem to matter. The semiconductor industry is in full pursuit of what many perceive to be the largest opportunity since the invention of the PC, the pub... » read more

Where The IoT Money Will Be
By Ernest Worthman - 05 Mar, 2015 - Comments: 0

As we get closer and closer to figuring out what the Internet of Things—or increasingly, the Internet of Everything (IoE)—will and won’t be, one of the themes that shows up regularly is exactly how to monetize it. “A large portion of marketing dollars are wasted when the wrong offers are made to the wrong people at the wrong place and time,” notes Jon Gettinger Sr. vice president o... » read more

Physically Unclonable Functions
By Ernest Worthman - 05 Mar, 2015 - Comments: 0

Physically unclonable functions (PUFs) are emerging as a novel way to protect a variety of ICs. In today’s world of cyber threats, vulnerabilities, insecure networks and hardware, and intrusions, it is finding a renewed interest. The technology on which it is based has been around since the mid-1990s in its present form and the term PUF was cloned in the early 2000s. PUFs find their anc... » read more

Challenges For IC Security
By Ernest Worthman - 05 Feb, 2015 - Comments: 0

Keeping chips secure is really a foot race between the good guys and the bad guys. Going forward, expect heavily funded, grouped efforts to place tremendous pressure on security envelopes. This includes everything from simple home devices, such as routers, to the most critical infrastructures, such as power, telecom, transportation, and soon, the IoT.
