This book provides a comprehensive coverage of hardware security concepts, derived from the unique characteristics of emerging logic and memory devices and related architectures. The primary focus is on mapping device-specific properties, such as multi-functionality, runtime polymorphism, intrinsic entropy, nonlinearity, ease of heterogeneous integration, and tamper-resilience to the corresponding security primitives that they help realize, such as static and dynamic camouflaging, true random number generation, physically unclonable functions, secure heterogeneous and large-scale systems, and tamper-proof memories. The authors discuss several device technologies offering the desired properties (including spintronics switches, memristors, silicon nanowire transistors and ferroelectric devices) for such security primitives and schemes, while also providing a detailed case study for each of the outlined security applications. Overall, the book gives a holistic perspective of how the promising properties found in emerging devices, which are not readily afforded by traditional CMOS devices and systems, can help advance the field of hardware security.

This book is a single-source solution for anyone who is interested in exploring emerging reconfigurable nanotechnology at the circuit level. It lays down a solid foundation for circuits based on this technology having considered both manual as well as automated design flows. The authors discuss the entire design flow, consisting of both logic and physical synthesis for reconfigurable nanotechnology-based circuits. The authors describe how transistor reconfigurable properties can be exploited at the logic level to have a more efficient circuit design flow, as compared to conventional design flows suited for CMOS. Further, the book provides insights into hardware security features that can be intrinsically developed using the runtime reconfigurable features of this nanotechnology.

This book will benefit SoC designers and researchers in designing secure, reliable, and trustworthy hardware. Provides guidance and security engineers for protecting their hardware designs; Covers a variety digital and analog hardware security primitives and applications for securing modern devices; Helps readers understand PUF, TRNGs, silicon odometer, and cryptographic hardware design for system security.

This book demonstrates the breadth and depth of IP protection through logic locking, considering both attacker/adversary and defender/designer perspectives. The authors draw a semi-chronological picture of the evolution of logic locking during the last decade, gathering and describing all the DO’s and DON’Ts in this approach. They describe simple-to-follow scenarios and guide readers to navigate/identify threat models and design/evaluation flow for further studies. Readers will gain a comprehensive understanding of all fundamentals of logic locking.

The International Conference on Communication and Computing Systems (ICCCS 2018) provides a high-level international forum for researchers and recent advances in the field of electronic devices, computing, big data analytics, cyber security, quantum computing, biocomputing, telecommunication, etc. The aim of the conference was to bridge the gap between the technological advancements in the industry and the academic research.

If you’re tired of the outdated day and swing trading literature that’s available in bookstores and are looking for something more in touch with the current market structure, then this book will please you with a wealth of up-to-date advice, tips, strategies, and techniques.

This open access book explores the legal aspects of cybersecurity in Poland. The authors are not limited to the framework created by the NCSA (National Cybersecurity System Act - this act was the first attempt to create a legal regulation of cybersecurity and, in addition, has implemented the provisions of the NIS Directive) but may discuss a number of other issues. The book presents international and EU regulations in the field of cybersecurity and issues pertinent to combating cybercrime and cyberterrorism. Moreover, regulations concerning cybercrime in a few select European countries are presented in addition to the problem of collision of state actions in ensuring cybersecurity and human rights. The advantages of the book include a comprehensive and synthetic approach to the issues related to the cybersecurity system of the Republic of Poland, a research perspective that takes as the basic level of analysis issues related to the security of the state and citizens, and the analysis of additional issues related to cybersecurity, such as cybercrime, cyberterrorism, and the problem of collision between states ensuring security cybernetics and human rights. The book targets a wide range of readers, especially scientists and researchers, members of legislative bodies, practitioners (especially judges, prosecutors, lawyers, law enforcement officials), experts in the field of IT security, and officials of public authorities. Most authors are scholars and researchers at the War Studies University in Warsaw. Some of them work at the Academic Centre for Cybersecurity Policy - a thinktank created by the Ministry of National Defence of the Republic of Poland. .
