Embedded security: Do you know what you don’t know?
by Lynnette Reese, contributing editor Most of us assume that security comes from the operating system or application software. However, firmware is also at risk, including anything that barely hovers over the physical layer (silicon) in the chip. Embedded security is especially important in blocking seemingly innocuous pathways for hacking, such as in an automotive […]
