Week In Review: Auto, Security, Pervasive Computing
By Linda Christensen - 02 Sep, 2022 - Comments: 0

The great EV ramp EV-related developments are everywhere. California’s move to ban sales of new internal-combustion vehicles by 2035, and the U.S. government’s sweeping embrace of clean-energy, are in lockstep with recent moves by the auto industry and related supply chains, as well as cutting-edge research. One of the big breakthroughs is the ability to charge an EV in 10 minutes witho... » read more

Fuzz, Penetration, and AI Testing for SoC Security Verification: Challenges and Solutions
By Technical Paper Link - 28 Mar, 2022 - Comments: 0

Abstract "The ever-increasing usage and application of system-on-chips (SoCs) has resulted in the tremendous modernization of these architectures. For a modern SoC design, with the inclusion of numerous complex and heterogeneous intellectual properties (IPs),and its privacy-preserving declaration, there exists a wide variety of highly sensitive assets. These assets must be protected from any u... » read more

Securing 5G And IoT With Fuzzing
By Synopsys - 04 Aug, 2021 - Comments: 0

5G will revolutionize many industries, with up to 100 times the speed, 100 times the capacity, and one-tenth the latency compared to 4G LTE. But in addition to providing superior performance, 5G expands the attack surface of apps and IoT devices that rely on this next-gen network. In addition to known security exploits, we’re bound to see unknown, novelty attacks. Fuzz testing (or fuzzing)... » read more

What Is Fuzzing?
By Synopsys - 26 Oct, 2016 - Comments: 0

Fuzzing is an excellent technique for locating vulnerabilities in software. The basic premise is to deliver intentionally malformed input to target software and detect failure. A complete fuzzer has three components. A poet creates the malformed inputs or test cases.A courier delivers test cases to the target software. Finally, an oracle detects target failures. Different fuzzing techniques ... » read more
