Dodging The Next Generation Of Car Thieves
By Mike Borza - 06 Dec, 2018 - Comments: 1

The complexity of vehicle electronics is growing and brings with it more opportunities for hackers to penetrate the car’s defenses. More connections bring in multiple network topologies, which may or may not be secure. As they are all intertwined and interconnected, any connection to get into the vehicle’s electronics is a potential point of attack for hackers. For example, jamming RFID sig... » read more

Establishing the Root of Trust for the Internet of Things
By Nisha Amshul - 12 Nov, 2018 - Comments: 0

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a quickly emerging ecosystem of applications, products and services in which both large and small devices connect to the internet. These new IoT devices will be embedded into diverse applications ranging from home security and home automation to manufacturing—and more. Protecting the data collected from these dispersed IoT endpoints presents a myriad of challen... » read more

Is Your AI SoC Secure?
By Dana Neustadter - 13 Sep, 2018 - Comments: 0

As artificial intelligence (AI) enters every application, from IoT to automotive, it is bringing new waves of innovation and business models, along with the need for high-grade security. Hackers try to exploit vulnerabilities at all levels of the system, from the system-on-chip (SoC) up. Therefore, security needs to be integral in the AI process. The protection of AI systems, their data, and th... » read more

Ben Levine, senior director of product management at Rambus, explains how to minimize the risk of attacks on chip hardware, why design for security is becoming more critical for connected devices, and strategies for making devices less vulnerable. https://youtu.be/twgHcdqvyjU » read more

The CryptoManager Root Of Trust
By Rambus - 16 Apr, 2018 - Comments: 0

In January 2018, Meltdown and Spectre were independently disclosed by multiple security researchers, including senior Rambus technology advisor Paul Kocher and senior Rambus security engineer Mike Hamburg. The two security flaws exploit critical vulnerabilities across a wide range of modern processors, including Intel, ARM and AMD. Notably, however, existing RISC-V processors remain unaffected ... » read more

IIoT Security Threat Rising
By Kevin Fogarty - 14 Mar, 2018 - Comments: 0

The rapid growth of the Industrial Internet of Things is raising questions about just how secure these systems are today, how to improve security, and who exactly should be responsible for that. These issues are interlaced with a shift in where a growing volume of data gets processed, the cost and speed of moving large amounts of data, and the increasing frequency and cost of attacks. "Di... » read more

Protecting Automotive Systems With A Root Of Trust
By Andrew Elias - 11 Jan, 2018 - Comments: 0

As our cars become more connected and autonomous, we depend on them to entertain us, connect seamlessly to our phones (which carry substantial personal information), help keep us in our proper driving lane, and more. We expect that the electronics in the automobile will work as advertised. However, connected cars can have vulnerabilities to direct, over-the-air, or side-channel attacks, which c... » read more

IoT Security: Technology Is Only One Part Of The Equation
By Warren Kurisu - 05 Oct, 2017 - Comments: 0

Survey after survey on the adoption of the IoT punctuates that security and data privacy continue to be the top concerns with any new implementation. It used to be that security was all about protecting data (business, personal ID, etc.), but as more devices are connected to the IoT, security concerns reach far beyond just the value inherent in the data. According to Gartner, nearly 5.5 ... » read more

Putting A Hardware Root-of-Trust To Work In An Anti-Counterfeiting IC
By Scott Best - 04 May, 2017 - Comments: 1

An anti-counterfeiting security IC is conceptually rather simple: during manufacture, it is securely programmed with some secret data. Then during operation, it can prove to a verifying host that it knows that secret data. This “proof of knowledge” is often all that can be expected of a low-cost security IC. This prove-you-know-the-secret authentication process between the security IC an... » read more
