Securing Data In Heterogeneous Designs
By Adam Kovac - 02 Jul, 2024 - Comments: 0

Data security is becoming a bigger concern as chips are disaggregated into chiplets and various third-party IP blocks. There is no single solution that works for all designs, and no single tool or methodology that addresses everything in any design. Data is being transmitted across time zones, political borders, and even across multiple designs. Laws and the need to comply with standards may... » read more

The Importance Of Memory Encryption For Protecting Data In Use
By Emma-Jane Crozier - 06 Jun, 2024 - Comments: 0

As systems-on-chips (SoCs) become increasingly complex, security functions must grow accordingly to protect the semiconductor devices themselves and the sensitive information residing on or passing through them. While a Root of Trust security solution built into the SoCs can protect the chip and data resident therein (data at rest), many other threats exist which target interception, theft or t... » read more

CMOS-Based HW Topology For Single-Cycle In-Memory XOR/XNOR Operations
By Technical Paper Link - 07 Nov, 2023 - Comments: 0

A technical paper titled “CMOS-based Single-Cycle In-Memory XOR/XNOR” was published by researchers at University of Tennessee, University of Virginia, and Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL). Abstract: "Big data applications are on the rise, and so is the number of data centers. The ever-increasing massive data pool needs to be periodically backed up in a secure environment. Moreover, a ... » read more

Draft Standards For Quantum Safe Cryptography Are Here
By Bart Stevens - 07 Sep, 2023 - Comments: 0

The world of security is constantly evolving, and in the few short weeks that have passed since my last blog on What It Takes To Make An SoC Design Quantum Safe, there have been some new and exciting developments in the world of quantum safe cryptography. On August 24th, 2023, NIST published the first three draft standards for general-purpose Quantum Safe Cryptography (also known as Post-Quantu... » read more

Securing Chip Manufacturing Against Growing Cyber Threats
By Anne Meixner - 17 Aug, 2023 - Comments: 0

Semiconductor manufacturers are wrestling with how to secure a highly specialized and diverse global supply chain, particularly as the value of their IP and their dependence upon software increases — along with the sophistication and resources of the attackers. Where methodologies and standards do exist for security, they often are confusing, cumbersome, and incomplete. There are plenty of... » read more

What It Takes To Make An SoC Design Quantum Safe
By Bart Stevens - 03 Aug, 2023 - Comments: 0

When it comes to quantum computing attacks, the first question people ask is “will my design be impacted?” In the majority of cases, the answer is yes. For any device that cannot function with manually programmed symmetric keys, which is most devices, you must plan to make upgrades. The good news is that your architecture is not impacted. Secure domains remain secure domains and keys can be... » read more
