Secure functionality plays a crucial part of SoC integration. Cryptographic engines and random number generators establish data encryption and decryption for secure communication. Semiconductor chip-level ID guarantees the authenticity of a secure system, often enhanced with physically unclonable functions (PUFs.) Secure zones are established through security gateways to incoming and outgoing data. Here, data are digitally represented, and digital circuits dominate secure functionalities. “Hardware security” broadly covers technical fields and scientific communities associated with cryptography and the authenticity of electronics. The associated research topics are naturally cross layer among architectures, algorithms, systems, circuits, and assembly techniques to implement, manage, protect, and sustain the security functionality of SoCs.
