Overview
Rambus Circuit Camouflage Technology (formerly Inside Secure), also known as SecureMedia Library (SML), is an anti-reverse engineering and anti-cloning protection for integrated circuits that has both Commercial and Government Applications. The Circuit Camouflage Technology significantly increases the level of difficulty while decreasing reliability of reverse engineering efforts of a circuit.
SML utilizes foundry standard cells, standard tools and design methodology, doesn't rely on coatings or shields, and provides a high return on investment for silicon manufacturers, chip makers wanting Intellectual Property protection and having products in high attack environments.
The SML is available in silicon technologies down to 28nm and Inside Secure is currently working on a project in FINFET 14nm.
With the Circuit Camouflage Technology, chip makers keep sensitive and strategic aspects of custom designs secret from competitors and counterfeiters, providing hardware protection to secure intellectual properties. Additionally, Inside Secure s Camo SmartFill provides high tamper resistance from unauthorized modifications to the design by filling the entire chip with circuitry allowing attackers no space in which to insert a Trojan circuit without destroying the underlying function of the ASIC.

If your device processes valuable data, controls a critical function, or connects to a wider network, it’s a target. Attackers don’t just try to break software; they increasingly physically tamper with hardware; probing, fault injecting, or opening enclosures to bypass protections and extract secrets. The consequences range from IP theft and fraud to orchestrated downtime across fleets of connected devices.
As automotive displays become part of the safety surface, traditional host-dependent display architectures are showing their limits. In this article, Trilinear outlines how a RISC-V supervised DisplayPort subsystem can provide isolated control, deterministic fault handling, and a more auditable architecture for advanced automotive display platforms.
The automotive industry is undergoing the most significant transformation since the advent of electronics in cars. Vehicles are becoming software-defined, connected, AI-driven, and continuously updated. This evolution brings extraordinary new capability – but it also brings greater levels of cybersecurity and functional-safety risks.
Agile Analog’s tamper detection IP is a comprehensive set of sensors and monitors designed to detect a wide variety of physical attacks and side-channel attacks (SCAs). T
Adaptability is essential for digital twin systems due to constantly evolving environments – Learn how eFPGA hardware enables robust and adaptable systems
Have you ever wondered how secure critical systems, like medical devices, aerospace systems or autonomous cars, really are when it comes to data protection? One point of the answer lies in effective and robust key management. Cryptographic keys are the digital secrets underpinning device identity, data confidentiality, secure communication, and overall system trustworthiness.
