IoT Cyber-Security: A Missing Piece Of The Smart City Puzzle
By Rambus - 04 Oct, 2017 - Comments: 0

Smart city devices, as well as the data they generate, must be protected against a wide range of cyber threats. Vulnerable devices can be hijacked and even physically disabled, while unencrypted or unverified data transmissions can be intercepted, leaked or spoofed. A leak or deliberate falsification of sensitive customer data will inevitably damage a brand and decrease confidence in smart city... » read more

LiDAR Market Continues To Percolate
By Jeff Dorsch - 13 Sep, 2017 - Comments: 0

Light imaging, detection, and ranging (LiDAR) sensors are still dazzling investors and technologists. They are chasing after the technology for automotive applications, while also keeping an eye on LiDAR for drones, industrial automation, mapping, and robotics, among other uses. It’s too early to tell how market share for automotive LiDAR is shaping up, as the bigger vendors are still work... » read more

Let’s Talk About Securing Smart Homes
By Asaf Ashkenazi - 07 Sep, 2017 - Comments: 1

The global smart home market is expected to reach at least $40 billion in value by 2020. Perhaps not surprisingly, OEMs are inadvertently creating major security risks in their rush to market by shipping smart home products with inadequate security and unpatched vulnerabilities. As ABI Research Analyst Dimitrios Pavlakis notes, ignoring cybersecurity at the design level provides a wide-open doo... » read more

Improving Data Security

Design And Verification For An Era Of A Trillion Devices
By Frank Schirrmeister - 24 Aug, 2017 - Comments: 0

Scared or excited? When I did a back-of-the-envelope calculation whether the one trillion devices that Softbank’s CEO Masa-san predicted least year at ARM TechCon was possible, I realized that a trillion may be the low end of the range. For me, the geeky excitement about the potential technological progress and how to architect the Internet of Things (IoT) gets balanced very fast with concern... » read more

Power/Performance Bits: Aug. 22
By Jesse Allen - 22 Aug, 2017 - Comments: 0

USB data leakage Researchers from the University of Adelaide found that USB connections are vulnerable to information leakage. In testing more than 50 different computers and external USB hubs, they found that over 90% of them leaked information to an external USB device. "USB-connected devices include keyboards, cardswipers and fingerprint readers which often send sensitive information to ... » read more
