Understanding Differential Power Analysis (DPA)
Differential power analysis is a powerful tool attackers used to extract secret keys and compromise the security of tamper resistant devices. DPA is a side-channel attack that is extremely effective low cost and widely known. These attacks use variations in the electrical power consumption of a targeted device and then breech security in devices by using statistical methods by deriving secret keys from crypto-algorithm. DPA attacks are dangerous because they circumvent the normal hardware and software security defenses that have been put in place, allowing fraudulent transactions, data theft, device modifications and other costly, unauthorized activities. Because such attacks are noninvasive, an intruder can compromise an embedded system without leaving a trace.

CSI-2 – HDMI Demo (Northwest Logic, Mixel)
Rambus’, formerly Northwest Logic, and Mixel have created a new CSI-HDMI demo that features the Omnivision 13850 camera outputing 4K video over 4 MIPI data lanes, each running at 1.2 Gbit/s. The video runs through cables to Mixel’s D-PHY Test Chip. The D-PHY Test Chip receives the MIPI video stream and sends it to a Xilinx Virtex-7 located on the Xilinx VC707 board. Northwest Logic’s CSI-2 Rx Controller Core in the Virtex-7 processes the MIPI Camera Serial Interface protocol and extracts the video pixels. These pixels are then Beyer processed, color and gamma corrected and sent via HDMI to the 1080P display.

What is Payment Tokenization?
Traditionally when a card or mobile payment is made, the card number passes through various points in the authorization process. This increases the risk of fraud because this data can be intercepted at multiple points. To counter this, an increasing amount of payment card issuers use a technology called tokenization. This stores the original number in a secure token vault, and substitutes it with a unique tokenized number. Because of the limited validity, this number is useless when intercepted.
