Semiconductor Engineering .:. Building Security into the Smart Home Devices with a Hardware Root of Trust
The growth in the semiconductor industry over the past years has been driven heavily by the storage and compute needs on smartphones, computers, servers and data centers. These conventional drivers are set to change. New-age technologies like big data, artificial intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT) will fuel the demand for the future growth in semiconductors. Not only is IoT assisting in new developments in technology, with the help of AI and big data, it is also enabling us to access data in real-time. This real-time data has helped to improve key processes within homes, moving toward a ‘smart’ and more efficient society.
