Information Security in Embedded Systems

In a controlled environment, preventing accidental errors and hardware failures is sufficient to achieve secure behavior. If an unrecoverable situation is detected, the system can switch to a limited or non-functional state, but it remains safe. In uncontrolled environments, various forms of attacks can jeopardize the security of the system. Only by considering security at … Read more

Common Security Threats and Protections in Embedded Systems

Due to the uniqueness of embedded systems, there are many security threats. Firstly, because embedded systems have limited resources, with small RAM and ROM and limited processing speed, they cannot implement multiple security defense measures simultaneously, making them vulnerable to attacks. Secondly, the diverse deployment environments of embedded systems, such as industrial production environments, medical … Read more

Differences Between Cybersecurity and Embedded Systems

1. What is Cybersecurity? Cybersecurity includes network software security, network device security, and network information security, which refers to protecting the hardware, software, and data in network systems from accidental or malicious changes, destruction, or leakage, ensuring that the system can operate reliably, continuously, and normally, with uninterrupted network services. For example, certain official websites … Read more
