Security and security evaluations of integrated circuits is becoming a very important component for the overall security of devices and systems and is complex for a number of reasons. First, there is a large number of different regulations and assurance requirements that are continuously being developed. Second, the security of hardware-based solutions depends on the specific solution, and the solutions are fragmented, ranging from highly secure to unprotected in different technologies. Third, attacks and tools for attacks in the hardware area are actively being developed, leading to implementation of countermeasures and increased complexity and costs. Fourth, the developments of cryptography to quantum safe algorithms introduces challenges larger than drop-in replacements.

In this talk, we will first give an introduction to security evaluation of hardware-based security evaluation and its importance for the overall security of devices and systems. Then we will describe the current challenges for manufacturers, security laboratories and certification assessment bodies with focus on (1) the developments in the landscape of regulations and certification schemes, and then (2) the challenges for hardware-based security given the developments of post-quantum cryptography.
