It is well-known that AI is everywhere, and the incredible power of this new technology is enabled by highly complex, purpose-built silicon. But there is a silent enemy of this substantial, world-changing progress. Something that has the power to steal a bright future from all of us. The hardware root of trust for those advanced… Read More
Hardware-level chip security has become an important topic across the semiconductor ecosystem. Thanks to sophisticated AI-fueled attacks, the hardware root of trust and its firmware are now vulnerable. And unlike software security, an instantiated weakness cannot be patched. The implications of such vulnerabilities are… Read More
