Hardware Security and Trust

The book "Hardware Security and Trust" provides a comprehensive introduction to hardware security, starting from specification to implementation. It covers applications in embedded systems, ranging from small RFID tags to satellites. The authors explain a design and synthesis process that enables the transformation of a given circuit into a secure design that integrates countermeasures against fault attacks. Additionally, the conflict between testability and security is addressed, presenting innovative Design-for-Testability (DFT) Computer-Aided Design (CAD) tools that are tailored to the challenges of security and compatible with existing commercial tools. The book also discusses secure protocols that protect access to necessary testing infrastructures and facilitate the development of secure access control systems.
