A Holistic Approach to SoC Security Verification

Why You Should Attend: 

Hardware is generally employed in operational settings such as data centers, nuclear plants, IOT and automotive industry. Vulnerable hardware puts the whole system at risk, and it can be exposed to malicious attacks. How do we uncover vulnerabilities in hardware during development to ensure security risks are minimized before deployment? Chip designers must take security into account, and verification engineers must check that no vulnerabilities exist in the RTL design. Synopsys provides unparalleled functionality in this domain.

This presentation will cover security overview for hardware, design and verification needs for secure semiconductors and dive into early vulnerability analysis, secure data propagation verification, and fault simulation. The challenges and solutions related to these verification techniques will be explored, enabling engineers to design and verify SoCs that meet the stringent security requirements of the automotive industry and industry standards like ISO 26262 and ISO/SAE 21434.
