Constantly advancing integration capability is paving the way for the construction of the
extremely large scale continuum of the Internet where entities or things from vastly varied …

Often overlooked, microcontrollers are the central component in embedded systems which
drive the evolution toward the Internet of Things (IoT). They are small, easy to handle, low …

Abstract IEEE 802.15. 4 is a wireless standard used by a variety of higher-level protocols,
including many used in the Internet of Things (IoT). A number of system on a chip (SoC) …

A wireless router is a networking device that enables a user to set up a wireless connection
to the Internet. A router can offer a secure channel by cryptographic means which provides …

Micro-architectural leakage is a reality even on low-to midrange commercial processors.
Dealing with it is expensive, because micro-architectural leakage is often only discovered …

Proprietary cryptography is a term used to describe custom encryption techniques that are
kept secret by its designers to add additional security. It is questionable if such an approach …

Leakage simulators offer the tantalising promise of easy and quick testing of software with
respect to the presence of side channel leakage. The quality of their build in leakage models …

Optical emissions from semiconductors have been found to leak important information from
embedded security devices. Unfortunately, the required substrate thinning and photon …

Masking is known as the most widely studied countermeasure against side-channel analysis
attacks. Since a masked implementation is based on a certain number of shares (referred to …

Side‐channel attacks provide tools to analyse the degree of resilience of a cryptographic
device against adversaries measuring leakages (eg power traces) on the target device …
