Understanding the methodology behind side-channel attacks
https://www.rambus.com/blogs/understanding-the-methodology-behind-side-channel-attacks-2/Rambus Cryptography Research Fellow Pankaj Rohatgi recently penned an in-depth EDN article describing the methodology behind side-channel attacks. The technique, says Rohatgi, relies on the fact that any physical realization of cryptography in hardware or software cannot be an “atomic black box” as assumed by the traditional mathematical proofs of security. Simply put, physical systems […]
Securing silicon with a hardware-based root of trust
https://www.rambus.com/blogs/securing-silicon-with-a-hardware-based-root-of-trust-2/Steven Woo, VP of solutions marketing and distinguished inventor at Rambus, recently sat down with Anne Fisher of Embedded Systems Engineering to discuss the burgeoning security requirements of a rapidly growing Internet of Things (IoT). According to Woo, the semiconductor industry now realizes security is a critical goal that needs to be treated as a […]
Side channel attacks reportedly targeted Trusted Platform Modules
https://www.rambus.com/blogs/side-channel-attacks-reportedly-targeted-trusted-platform-modules-2/Security analysts reportedly explored how to extract private encryption keys from Trusted Platform Modules (TPMs) by “measuring electromagnetic signals emanating” from the chips. “This is what cryptographers call differential power analysis, a sophisticated side-channel attack in which spies use sensors or other devices to study the power consumption of a chip while it encrypts and […]
Semiconductor Engineering goes 1:1 with Steven Woo
https://www.rambus.com/blogs/semiconductor-engineering-goes-11-with-steven-woo-2/Ernest Worthman of Semiconductor Engineering recently interviewed Steven Woo, a VP and distinguished inventor at Rambus. The two discussed the numerous challenges facing the rapidly evolving Internet of Things (IoT), including security and low power sipping requirements. As Woo points out, security and privacy are critical topics, with a significant amount of concern being expressed […]
Will security concerns slow IoT growth?
https://www.rambus.com/blogs/will-security-concerns-slow-iot-growth-2/Writing for Semiconductor Engineering, Ed Sperling confirms the industry is now in “full pursuit” of the Internet of Things (IoT). “In fact, what started as a trickle has turned into something that more closely resembles Niagara Falls,” Sperling opines. “This is particularly true for the so-called Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), where smart sensors on a […]
