Side-channel attacks target Mr. Robot
https://www.rambus.com/blogs/side-channel-attacks-target-mr-robot-2/This past summer, Engadget’s Violet Blue compiled a list of the top Mr. Robot hacks. These include deanonymizing Tor traffic, the installation of an Android rootkit, compromising an HVAC system using a Raspberry Pi, Bluetooth and text message spoofing, as well as the deployment of a keystroke-injection attack tool. Episode 5, “3xpl0its.wmv,” which aired on […]

Building silicon foundations for security
https://www.rambus.com/blogs/building-silicon-foundations-security/Paul Kocher, the chief scientist of Rambus’ Cryptography Research division, recently presented a DesignCon 2016 keynote session that explored the crowded intersection of hardware, Moore’s Law and cryptography. As Kocher notes, cryptographic limits have historically been constrained by a salient lack of computing power. “[Following Moore’s Law], more computing power enables much stronger algorithms,” he […]
Securing intelligent transportation systems
https://www.rambus.com/blogs/security-securing-intelligent-transportation-systems/Earlier this week, Team Lightbulb hosted its annual Broadband Conference at CES 2016. A number of topics were discussed at various panels throughout the day, including the steady evolution of intelligent transportation systems (ITS). Jill Ingrassia, the Managing Director of Government Relations and Traffic Safety Advocacy at AAA, told conference attendees the auto industry has […]
No quick fix for automotive insecurity
https://www.rambus.com/blogs/security-no-quick-fix-for-automotive-insecurity/Did you know that the automotive industry is still “ill equipped” to protect connected vehicles from hackers due to lagging security standards? Indeed, industry leaders have only begun to seriously explore more effective methods of securing a new wave of smart, semi autonomous vehicles. “Modern vehicles are essentially a network of networks – equipped with […]
