Hardware Security in the Era of IoT

Authors:Mridul Gupta, Satish Kapadiya

Abstract:The proliferation of the Internet of Things (IoT) has led to a paradigm shift in the way we interact with and perceive technology. IoT devices, ranging from smart home appliances to industrial sensors, have become integral to modern life. However, this increased connectivity and reliance on IoT also expose us to unprecedented security risks. This paper delves into the challenges posed by hardware security in the era of IoT, highlighting the vulnerabilities, potential threats, and innovative solutions that address these concerns. Through a comprehensive exploration of hardware-based security mechanisms, we aim to shed light on the pivotal role that secure hardware plays in establishing a resilient IoT ecosystem.
