How to design secure SoCs Part IV: Runtime Integrity Protection

SoC designers are increasingly challenged to integrate robust security measures into their designs. Modern connected devices, such as automotive Electronic Control Units (ECUs), Internet of Things (IoT) nodes, and industrial control systems, face increasing susceptibility to cyberattacks. This escalating threat landscape underscores the critical importance of mandatory security requirements.

Nine Compelling Reasons Why Menta eFPGA Is Essential for Achieving True Crypto Agility in Your ASIC or SoC

Today’s world is already overly complicated to provide robust product security, with extremely motivated hackers creating novel threats exposing new vulnerabilities every day. But considering tomorrow’s world with the looming threat of quantum computing, expanding AI possibilities and rapidly evolving regional regulations and export control risk with severe financial penalties, this is a daunting challenge.

Deploying StrongSwan on an Embedded FPGA Platform, IPsec/IKEv2 on Arty Z7 with PetaLinux and PQC

The objective of this article is to present and analyze a concrete IPsec/IKEv2 deployment on an FPGA-based embedded Linux system. Using an Arty Z7 FPGA platform with PetaLinux and StrongSwan, the focus is on system-level integration rather than protocol theory: how the IPsec stack is built and deployed, how classical and post-quantum key exchange are integrated without modifying standardized protocols, and what architectural trade-offs arise when moving cryptographic operations into programmable logic.

A Comprehensive Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) Solution based on Physical Unclonable Function (PUF)

This article provides an in-depth analysis of the specific PPA challenges introduced by PQC and elucidates how PUF-PQC leverages its unique dualtrack strategy to deliver a robust and flexible Hardware Root of Trust (HRoT) across diverse application scenarios. Furthermore, it demonstrates the integration of Physical Unclonable Function (PUF) with a NIST SP 800-90B compliant True Random Number Generator (TRNG) to serve as critical components of PUFrt (Root of Trust), ensuring the security of post-quantum key generation starting from the entropy source.

Why Anti-tamper Sensors Matter: Agile Analog and Rambus Deliver Comprehensive Security Solution

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.
