Anti-tamper protection: How to meet evolving threats
https://www.rambus.com/blogs/anti-tamper-protection/Scott Best, Technical Director of Anti-Counterfeiting Products at Rambus, recently penned an article for Semiconductor Engineering that details why it is critical to scale anti-tamper protection to meet escalating threats. What is an anti-tamper protection? As Best notes, anti-tamper tends to be one of the industry’s “catchall phrases” encompassing any countermeasure on a security chip. […]
Consumer Privacy and Safety at Risk from Unprotected IoT Devices
https://www.rambus.com/blogs/consumer-privacy-and-safety-at-risk-from-unprotected-iot-devices/Rambus’ Paul Karazuba recently penned an article for Semiconductor Engineering that takes a closer look at how consumer privacy and safety continue to be at risk from unprotected IoT devices. As Karazuba notes, security cameras represent approximately 47 percent of vulnerable devices installed on home networks. Basic attack techniques that target these devices, says Karazuba, […]
Security is Critical at the Intersection of AI and 5G
https://www.rambus.com/blogs/security-is-critical-at-the-intersection-of-ai-and-5g/Rambus’ Tim Messegee has penned an article for Semiconductor Engineering that takes an in-depth look at the importance of ensuring security at the intersection of AI and 5G. As Messegee notes, 5G represents nothing less than a revolution in mobile technology with performance that is poised to rival that of wireline networks. “Relative to its […]
Three Top Semiconductor Tech Trends for 2021
https://www.rambus.com/blogs/three-top-semiconductor-tech-trends-for-2021/As a momentous 2020 fades into the history books, 2021 is expected to be a year of growth and evolution for the semiconductor industry across multiple market segments.

MACsec Explained: Securing Data in Motion
https://www.rambus.com/blogs/macsec/Learn everything you need to know about MACsec, also known as Media Access Control Security. For end-to-end security of data, it needs to be secured when at rest (processed or stored in a device) and when in motion (communicated between connected devices). For data at rest, a hardware root of trust anchored in silicon provides […]

Root of Trust for FPGAs
https://www.rambus.com/security/root-of-trust/root-of-trust-for-fpgas/Security Root of Trust for FPGAs FPGAs (Field Programmable Gate Arrays) are widely used in industries such as Defense, Telecommunications, Automotive and AI/ML (Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning) because of their reconfigurability and flexibility. Whether functioning as the essential building blocks of avionics and spacecraft systems, controlling ADAS (Advanced Driver Assisted Systems) systems, or assisting inference workloads […]
A Modern Interpretation of Kerckhoff
https://www.rambus.com/blogs/a-modern-interpretation-of-kerckhoff/In the late 19th century, Dutch cryptographer Auguste Kerckhoff postulated what has become known as “Kerckhoff’s Principle” — a cryptosystem should be secure even if everything about the system, except the key, is public knowledge. Since Kerckhoff’s days, cryptography has certainly evolved. A modern interpretation of Kerckhoff teaches that you shouldn’t rely on the obscurity of your crypto algorithm, […]
Understanding Anti-Tamper Technology: Part 3
https://www.rambus.com/blogs/understanding-anti-tamper-technology-part-3/Written by Scott Best for the Rambus Blog In part one of this three-part blog series, we discussed the low-cost attacks that target security chips such as protocol and software attacks, brute force glitch attacks, as well environmental attacks. In part two, we took a closer look at attacks executed by more sophisticated adversaries. These […]
