Article #5 of the IoT Foundation Series. Internet-connected security devices provide a fast and easy way to create a home security system. But are they also creating opportunities for security weakness?
LaserShark: KIT researchers investigate hidden communication via optical channels - data can be transmitted to light-emitting diodes already built into devices
A critical flaw in random number generators puts the security of billions of low-cost IoT devices at risk. This means a new approach for generating random numbers is needed, which can be found in extracting entropy from SRAM behaviour.
The future seems rosy for smart manufacturing, but there is a downside. Cybercrime is on the rise, and though it might not seem as though industry presents a particularly valuable target, hackers think otherwise.
In this episode, we talk about NASA’s new packable solar sail for deep space travel, how to prevent cyber attacks by fixing memory vulnerabilities, and how flying robots could be the solution to our space trash problem.
With some modern vehicles having more than 100 electronic control units, along with the rise of wired and wireless communication protocols, automotive cybersecurity is now a critical concern.
To secure the billions of devices that are being connected to the Internet of Things, every device needs to have the capability to protect sensitive data and secure communications.
Secure key storage is essential for internet-of-things (IoT) devices. Most IoT devices utilize multiple application-specific keys from diverse suppliers to enable applications such as authentication, message encryption, software/firmware encryption, to name just a few.
Connecting devices to a network requires many kinds of keys for protecting data at rest as well as the device’s communications. So, the implementation of the security system of an IoT device requires more than a single cryptographic key.
Aerospace and government defense program users have unique needs when it comes to FPGA (field-programmable gate array) devices, both in terms of security and in terms of long-term deployments. Increasing use of unmanned systems and other autonomous assets has created new security challenges.
In this podcast we talk with Pim Tuyls, CEO of Intrinsic ID, about the different criteria to consider when choosing a PUF or Physical Unclonable Function and why PUFs are preferred over other approaches to get identities or cryptographic keys into chips or devices and to build a secure key vault.
