Design your lab based on your needs, target, and security goals, using a modular combination of HW, SW, and expert training for embedded systems, chips, and secure elements. The post Build Your Device Security Test Lab appeared first on Semiconductor Engineering .
The increasing complexity and interconnectedness of IoT devices, coupled with rising cyber threats and geopolitical tensions, are making robust device security a critical concern.
Sophisticated readers should care because inadequate device security poses significant risks to critical infrastructure, personal data, and national security, impacting both economic stability and trust in technology.
The focus is shifting towards proactive, in-house development of comprehensive security testing capabilities for embedded systems and chips, rather than relying solely on external audits or reactive measures.
- · Security consultancies
- · Hardware and software security tool providers
- · Semiconductor manufacturers
- · Critical infrastructure operators
- · Manufacturers with weak security practices
- · Consumers of insecure IoT devices
- · Organizations susceptible to hardware attacks
Companies will invest more in internal capabilities to test and validate the security of their embedded systems and IoT devices.
This investment will lead to a more secure baseline for new products entering the market, potentially setting higher industry standards for device security.
Enhanced device security will reduce the attack surface for advanced persistent threats targeting critical infrastructure, contributing to greater digital resilience at a national level.
