World is moving towards the age of fully autonomous environment where
things need to be done faster and without much influence of human, which
increases the use of embedded systems in all domains. Embedded systems are
the driving force for technological development in many domains. Security has
traditionally been a subject in the area of networking. However, security of
embedded systems is often ignored during the design and development period
of the product, thus leaving many devices vulnerable to attacks
1.INTRODUCTION - EMBEDDED SYSTEM SECURITY
In case if it is assumed that the embedded devices
are not vulnerable to cyberattackss
are not attractive targets for hacking,
are secured with encryption and authentication
then it is a big mistake for any organisation
This white paper details
need for Embedded System Security
some of the security risks and threats associated with embedded devices
challenges in security along with some of proposed countermeasures
