Securing IoT Devices With Lightweight Cryptography
By Bart Stevens - 02 Mar, 2023 - Comments: 0

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) recently announced the selection of a new family of cryptographic algorithms called ASCON, which have been developed for lightweight cryptography applications. In this blog, we will explore what lightweight cryptography is and why it is worth considering for specific Internet of Things (IoT) use cases. In summary, lightweight cryptogr... » read more

Security Highlight: Ascon
By Marc Witteman - 02 Mar, 2023 - Comments: 0

The contest for standardization of a lightweight crypto (LWC) algorithm has just finished. US standards body NIST selected Ascon as the winner. Ascon is an algorithm proposed by an international team of scientists that delivers strong performance and security at a low cost. How does that work? Lightweight crypto is symmetric encryption technology, that runs well on constrained systems, lik... » read more

Hardware Accelerator For Fully Homomorphic Encryption
By Technical Paper Link - 20 Dec, 2022 - Comments: 0

A technical paper titled "CraterLake: A Hardware Accelerator for Efficient Unbounded Computation on Encrypted Data" was published by researchers at MIT, IBM TJ Watson, SRI International, and University of Michigan. "We present CraterLake, the first FHE accelerator that enables FHE programs of unbounded size (i.e., unbounded multiplicative depth). Such computations require very large cipherte... » read more

Industry Adoption Of Line-Rate Network Security Using MACsec
By Maxim Demchenko - 05 Dec, 2022 - Comments: 0

Network security protocols are the primary means of securing data in motion — that is, data communicated between closely connected physical devices, or between devices, and even virtual machines connected using a complex infrastructure. This article will explore Media Access Control security (MACsec) and how it can be used to provide foundational level network security for a wide range of app... » read more

Security Solutions In A World Of IoT Devices
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

Secure Interfaces In An Increasingly Connected World
By Dana Neustadter - 03 Nov, 2022 - Comments: 0

The tremendous data and bandwidth growth in the era of supercomputing is driving technological advances across markets and is reshaping system-on-chip (SoC) designs supporting new compute architectures, more acceleration, and more storage. As high bandwidth interfaces including DDR, PCIe, CXL, Ethernet, HDMI and DisplayPort are proliferating and evolving from one generation to another, so does ... » read more

Research Bits: Aug. 8
By Jesse Allen - 08 Aug, 2022 - Comments: 0

Speeding NVM encryption Researchers from North Carolina State University propose a way to speed up encryption and file system performance for non-volatile memory (NVM). “NVMs are an emerging technology that allows rapid access to the data, and retains data even when a system crashes or loses power,” said Amro Awad, an assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering at North C... » read more

Hertzbleed: Prime Time For Power Side Channel Countermeasures Or Novelty Attack?
By Jasper van Woudenberg - 04 Aug, 2022 - Comments: 0

Hertzbleed is a new side-channel attack that turns a power side channel into a timing side channel. That timing side channel may be exploitable even if the algorithm runs in a constant number of clock cycles. The novel observation is that the duration of a clock cycle can vary depending on the data processed on a CPU that uses dynamic frequency scaling. This allows a remote attacker to extract... » read more

“All-in-One” 8×8 Array of Low-Power & Bio-inspired Crypto Engines w/IoT Edge Sensors Based on 2D Memtransistors
By Technical Paper Link - 01 Jul, 2022 - Comments: 0

New technical paper titled "All-in-one, bio-inspired, and low-power crypto engines for near-sensor security based on two-dimensional memtransistors" from researchers at Penn State University. Abstract: "In the emerging era of the internet of things (IoT), ubiquitous sensors continuously collect, consume, store, and communicate a huge volume of information which is becoming increasingly vuln... » read more
