Hardware Security in Medical Devices has not been a Priority — But it Should Be

Hardware Security in Medical Devices has not been a Priority — But it Should Be
by Andreas Kuehlmann on 02-21-2023 at 6:00 am

Rapid advances in medical technology prolong patients’ lives and provide them with a higher standard of living than years past. But the increased interconnectivity of those devices and their dependence on wired and wireless networks leave them susceptible to cyberattacks that could have severe consequences.

ASIL B Certification on an Industry-Class Root of Trust IP

ASIL B Certification on an Industry-Class Root of Trust IP
by Bernard Murphy on 02-08-2023 at 6:00 am

ASIL B requirements

I have always been curious about how Austemper-based safety methodologies (from Siemens EDA) compares with conventional safety flows. Siemens EDA together with Rambus recently released a white paper on getting a root of trust IP to ASIL B certification. This provides a revealing insight beyond the basics of fault simulation… Read More


Privacy? What Privacy?

Privacy? What Privacy?
by Roger C. Lanctot on 02-06-2023 at 10:00 am

Automotive Privacy and Security

It seems as if every day brings news of yet another company that is using artificial intelligence to leverage smartphone data for “non-invasive” analytics of human movement. Our smartphones and smartwatches and fitbits can detect whatever activity we are doing, how well or poorly we are doing it, how it is affecting our mood, … Read More


Validating NoC Security. Innovation in Verification

Validating NoC Security. Innovation in Verification
by Bernard Murphy on 12-21-2022 at 6:00 am

Innovation New

Network on Chip (NoC) connectivity is ubiquitous in SoCs, therefore should be an attractive attack vector. Is it possible to prove robustness against a broad and configurable range of threats? Paul Cunningham (Senior VP/GM, Verification at Cadence), Raúl Camposano (Silicon Catalyst, entrepreneur, former Synopsys CTO and… Read More


Blockchain 4.0

Blockchain 4.0
by Ahmed Banafa on 11-10-2022 at 10:00 am

Blockchain 4.0

The simple and best definition of Blockchain technology is to think about it as electricity , you only see it’s applications but you understand how important it’s and know there are many applications and products that can run on it . But like any other technology it went through stages and evolved as it progressed and matured. We started… Read More


NIST Standardizes PQShield Algorithms for International Post-Quantum Cryptography

NIST Standardizes PQShield Algorithms for International Post-Quantum Cryptography
by Kalar Rajendiran on 10-20-2022 at 6:00 am

Signature Schemes Standardization Process

News of cyberattacks is routine these days in spite of the security mechanisms built into widely used electronics systems. It is not surprising that entities involved with ensuring safe and secure systems are continually working on enhancing encryption/decryptions mechanisms. Recently NIST standardized cryptography algorithms… Read More


WEBINAR: Flash Memory as a Root of Trust

WEBINAR: Flash Memory as a Root of Trust
by Bernard Murphy on 10-09-2022 at 4:00 pm

secure flash

It should not come as a surprise that the vast majority of IoT devices are insecure. As an indication, one survey estimates that 98% of IoT traffic is unencrypted. It’s not hard to understand why. Many such devices are cost-sensitive, designing security into a product is hard, buyers aren’t prepared to pay a premium for security … Read More


WEBINAR: Taking eFPGA Security to the Next Level

WEBINAR: Taking eFPGA Security to the Next Level
by Daniel Nenni on 10-03-2022 at 6:00 am

SemiWiki Flex Logix Intrinsic-ID Webinar

We have written about eFPGA and for six years now and security even longer so it is natural to combine these two very important topics. Last month we covered the partnership between Flex Logix and Intrinsic ID, and the related white paper. Both companies are SemiWiki partners, so we were able to provide more depth and color:

In the … Read More


Protecting Critical IP With Next-Generation Zero Trust Security

Protecting Critical IP With Next-Generation Zero Trust Security
by Kalar Rajendiran on 08-22-2022 at 6:00 am

Securing Access Controls

While semiconductors are the enablers for high-tech solutions, the semiconductor industry was not at the forefront of Cloud adoption. There were many valid concerns behind the slow adoption, a primary reason being the threat to intellectual property (IP) security. IP in this context refers to not just chip building blocks but… Read More


Post-quantum cryptography steps on the field

Post-quantum cryptography steps on the field
by Don Dingee on 08-01-2022 at 6:00 am

PQSubSys post quantum cryptography IP

In cybersecurity circles, the elephant in the room is a quantum computer in the hands of nefarious actors. A day is coming, soon, when well-funded organizations will be able to rent time on, or maybe even build or buy a quantum machine. Then, if data is valuable enough, people will hunt for it. Two or three months of compute time on a … Read More
