Fundamentals of IP and SoC Security

This book is about security in embedded systems and it provides an authoritative reference to all aspects of security in system-on-chip (SoC) designs. The authors discuss issues ranging from security requirements in SoC designs, definition of architectures and design choices to enforce and validate security policies, and trade-offs and conflicts involving security, functionality, and debug requirements. Coverage also includes case studies from the 'trenches' of current industrial practice in design, implementation, and validation of security-critical embedded systems.

• Provides an authoritative reference and summary of the current state-of-the-art in security for embedded systems, hardware IPs and SoC designs;
• Takes a 'cross-cutting' view of security that interacts with different design and validation components such as architecture, implementation, verification, and debug, each enforcing unique trade-offs; 
• Includes high-level overview, detailed analysis on implementation, and relevant case studies on design/verification/debug issues related to IP/SoC security.

 

Swarup Bhunia received his B.E. (Hons.) from Jadavpur University, Kolkata, India, and the M.Tech. degree from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Kharagpur. He received his Ph.D. from Purdue University, IN, USA, in 2005. Currently, Dr. Bhunia is a professor in the department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at University of Florida, Gainesville, FL, USA. Earlier, Dr. Bhunia has served as the T. and A. Schroeder associate professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, OH, USA. He has over ten years of research and development experience with over 200 publications in peer-reviewed journals and premier conferences and four books (three edited) in the area of VLSI design, CAD and test techniques. His research interests include low power and robust design, hardware security and trust, adaptive nanocomputing and novel test methodologies. He has worked in the semiconductor industry on RTL synthesis, verification, and low power design for about three years. Dr. Bhunia received IBM Faculty Award (2013), National Science Foundation (NSF) career development award (2011), Semiconductor Research Corporation (SRC) technical excellence award (2005), best paper award in International Conference on VLSI Design (VLSI Design 2012), best paper award in International Conference on Computer Design (ICCD 2004), best paper award in Latin American Test Workshop (LATW 2003), and best paper nomination in Asia and South Pacific Design Automation Conference (ASP-DAC 2006) and in Hardware Oriented Test and Security (HOST 2010), nomination for John S. Diekhoff Award, Case Western Reserve University (2010) and SRC Inventor Recognition Award (2009).Sandip Ray is a Principal Engineer at NXP Semiconductors. His research primarily involves developing correct, dependable, secure, and trustworthy computing through cooperation of specification, synthesis, architecture and validation technologies. Before joining NXP, Dr. Ray was a Research Scientist at Strategic CAD Labs, Intel Corporation where he led the research on pre-silicon and post-silicon validation of security and functional correctness of Intel's next-generation SoC designs, design-for-security and design-for-debug architectures, CAD tools, and specifications for security assurance. Dr. Ray has over 60 publications in peer-reviewed premier international journals and conferences.  He was a guest editor for an IEEE Transactions on Multi-Scale Systems (TMSCS) special issue on Wearables, Implants, and Internet-of-Things, as well as special issues of ACM Transactions on Design Automation of Electronic Systems (TODAES) and Springer Journal on Electronic Testing Theory and Applications (JETTA). His research has found applications in a number of companies, including AMD, Freescale, Galois, IBM, Intel, NXP, and Rockwell Collins. He has received several recognition awards from Intel for his extensive contribution in the field of security architecture and validation. He has given invited, tutorial, and keynote presentations at several international forums on security, validation, and energy challenges in the IoT regime. Dr. Ray has served as a program committee member more than 40 international meetings and conferences, and as program chair for Formal Methods in Computer-Aided Design. He currently serves as an Associate Editor for IEEE TMSCS and Springer Journal on Hardware and Systems Security.  He has a Ph.D. from University of Texas at Austin and is a Senior Member of IEEE.
