"Making Scalable On-Chip Security Pervasive"

The growth of Internet of Things (IoT) is accompanied by the increase in accessible devices and the number of complex chip designs needed for their operation. The rapid growth of IoT devices calls for the advancement of chip-level security. According to the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), there is a notable lack of common tools, methods, and solutions for the incorporation of security into chips. Therefore, DARPA developed the Automatic Implementation of Secure Silicon (AISS) program. AISS will address economic and technical challenges in regard to the implementation of security into   the design of chips. This article continues to discuss the challenges associated with incorporating security into chips and the program developed by DARPA to address these challenges, which would make salable on-chip security pervasive.
