Forgotten Essence Of The Backend Penetration Testing
By Riscure - 01 Feb, 2023 - Comments: 0

At Riscure we have observed many severe security issues exploited by hackers even in previously certified solutions. In recent years, certification, which aims to minimize security risks, has become more important, especially in the mobile application industry. However, certification compliance is sometimes still not sufficient. This is especially noticeable when the solution’s functionality ... » read more

Countering The Threat From Quantum Computers
By Infineon - 01 Feb, 2023 - Comments: 0

Quantum computers hold much promise for the future, yet their computing power poses a significant threat to current security methods such as public key cryptography. In this white paper, Infineon will examine this issue in detail, propose an approach for future security based on TPMs and discuss current TPM technology. The reader can expect to gain a good appreciation of the security issues sur... » read more

Week In Review: Auto, Security, Pervasive Computing
By Marie C. Baca - 27 Jan, 2023 - Comments: 0

The U.S. Department of Defense updated the directive that governs the development and fielding of autonomous and semi-autonomous weapon systems. The revisions include an expanded focus on artificial intelligence, and reference to recently-established organizations like the DoD’s Chief Digital and Artificial Intelligence Office. NIST released a new guidance document aimed at helping organi... » read more

EV Architectures Evolving For Communication, Connectivity
By Marie C. Baca - 18 Jan, 2023 - Comments: 0

Electric vehicle architectures are rapidly evolving to accommodate multiple forms of connectivity, including in-vehicle, vehicle-to-vehicle, and vehicle-to-infrastructure communication. But so far, automotive OEMs have yet to come to a consensus on the winning technologies or the necessary standards — all of which will be necessary as cars become increasingly autonomous and increasingly inter... » read more

Architecting Hardware Protection For Data At Rest, In Motion, And In Use
By Bart Stevens - 05 Jan, 2023 - Comments: 0

Planning the security architecture for any device begins with the security threat model. The threat model describes the types of attacks that the device or application may face and needs to be protected against. It is based on what attackers can do, what level of control they have over the product (i.e., remote, or direct access), and how much money and effort they are willing and able to spend... » read more

Security Highlight: Compromising Printers Via Malicious Third-Party Cartridges
By Nicole Fern - 05 Jan, 2023 - Comments: 0

This fall, HP Inc. published an article describing a buffer overflow vulnerability in their printer software which would allow an attacker to obtain persistent remote code execution on the printer. Buffer overflow vulnerabilities are common, but what makes this one noteworthy is that it can be exploited remotely by a malicious third-party printer cartridge. In the printer ecosystem, there ... » read more

Navigating The Intersection Of Safety And Security
By Jake Wiltgen - 05 Jan, 2023 - Comments: 0

Automotive IC safety and security continue to be hot topics across the industry, and one phrase you may often hear during discussion is: An automotive IC can be secure without needing to be safe, but an automotive IC cannot be safe without also being secure. Adding a bit of detail to that: An automotive IC which has an incomplete security architecture provides potential attack vectors w... » read more

Week In Review: Auto, Security, Pervasive Computing
By SE Staff - 22 Dec, 2022 - Comments: 0

Automotive, Mobility Automotive chip shortages will continue until 2025, according to reports in a Financial Times (FT) article. Demand for SiC power chips will remain high. Onsemi reportedly is already sold out of the power semiconductors. Archer Aviation’s Midnight eVTOL (electric vertical take-off and landing) is listed in the Federal Register now by The U.S. Federal Aviation Administr... » read more

Designing And Securing Chips For Outer Space
By Marie C. Baca - 19 Dec, 2022 - Comments: 2

Design considerations for hardware used in space go far beyond radiation hardening. These devices have to perform flawlessly for years, under extreme temperature variations, and potentially banged up by space junk or other particles floating in the void over its projected lifetime. Reliability in space adds a whole different set of design considerations. For example, while it's unlikely anyo... » read more

Ensuring Your Semiconductor Test Equipment Is Protected From Rising Cybersecurity Threats
By Eli Roth - 06 Dec, 2022 - Comments: 0

Cybersecurity threats pose risks to your business every day and can attack every aspect of your operation, and these threats are only increasing. According to IBM Security’s Cost of a Data Breach Report, in 2021, the average total cost of a data breach increased by nearly 10% year over year, from $3.86M to $4.24M – the largest single year cost increase in the last seven years. Sourc... » read more
