Opis

On any advanced integrated circuit or "system-on-chip" there is a need for security. In many applications the actual implementation has become the weakest link in security rather than the algorithms or protocols. The purpose of the book is to give the integrated circuits and systems designer an insight into the basics of security and cryptography from the implementation point of view. As a designer of integrated circuits and systems it is important to know both the state-of-the-art attacks as well as the countermeasures. Optimizing for security is different from optimizations for speed, area, or power consumption. It is therefore difficult to attain the delicate balance between the extra cost of security measures and the added benefits.

As information processing moves at a fast pace to small portable embedded devices, the information channels and endpoints need greater protection. Secure Integrated Circuits and Systems provides the integrated circuits designer and embedded system designer with insights into the basics of security and cryptography needed for such devices from an implementation perspective. The editor provides basic coverage of the mathematics of cryptography, basic security attack strategies, the architecture and implementation options of many security primitives and modules, and design methods for security. Applications covered include security for RFID and sensor nodes, security for FPGAs, smart-cards and flash memories.

Secure Integrated Circuits and Systems is a valuable resource for those working on integrated circuits as well as for the embedded systems designer who designs for ASICs, FPGAs and small embedded processors.
