Wanting to achieve greater security for smartcards chips, a Cambridge University
research group, reconsidered the whole chip development process and established
new design criteria that are providing security against quite a number of new
attack techniques.
Chaos: the Key to Security?
Czech researchers have successfully applied complex chaos theory to advance the
state-of-the-art in encryption. The results can help promote higher levels of
security, for example for online credit card transactions.
Asynchronous design for increased electronic security
Smart cards are widely used, however, they are subject to various types of
attack and this imposes new demands on assessing their security, particularly
for financial transactions. A newly developed asynchronous circuit technique,
namely the dual-rail logic, is expected to provide increased protection of smart
cards against attacks.
