As embedded systems and System-on-Chip (SoC) designs grow in complexity and integration, the risk of physical attacks has dramatically increased. Modern day adversaries no longer rely solely on software vulnerabilities; instead, they exploit the physical properties of silicon to gain access to sensitive data. Side-channel… Read More
On July 18, 2025, Mark Tehranipoor, chairman of the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at the University of Florida and co-founder of Caspia Technologies, delivered a compelling talk at DACtv on leveraging large language models (LLMs) for System-on-Chip (SoC) security, as seen in the YouTube video. Addressing… Read More
Formal verification is becoming essential in the design and implementation of cryptographic systems, particularly as the industry prepares for post-quantum cryptography (PQC). While traditional testing techniques validate correctness over a finite set of scenarios, formal verification uses mathematical proofs to guarantee… Read More
We have a shortage of reference designs to test detection of security vulnerabilities. An LLM-based method demonstrates how to fix that problem with structured prompt engineering. Paul Cunningham (GM, Verification at Cadence), Raúl Camposano (Silicon Catalyst, entrepreneur, former Synopsys CTO and lecturer at Stanford,… Read More
As hardware systems become increasingly complex and security threats grow more sophisticated, ensuring robust hardware security during the pre-silicon phase of development is more critical than ever. Cycuity’s white paper outlines how its Radix platform enables engineers to verify, visualize, and measure the effectiveness… Read More
