SRAM Security Concerns Grow


SRAM security concerns are intensifying as a combination of new and existing techniques allow hackers to tap into data for longer periods of time after a device is powered down. This is particularly alarming as the leading edge of design shifts from planar SoCs to heterogeneous systems in package, such as those used in AI or edge processing, where chiplets frequently have their own memory hi... » read more

A Hardware Accelerator Designed For The Homomorphic SEAL-Embedded Library


A technical paper titled "VLSI Design and FPGA Implementation of an NTT Hardware Accelerator for Homomorphic SEAL-Embedded Library" was published by researchers at University of Pisa. Abstract: "Homomorphic Encryption (HE) allows performing specific algebraic computations on encrypted data without the need for decryption. For this reason, HE is emerging as a strong privacy-preserving solution... » read more
