Abstract :
The security of a digital system depends directly on the security of the hardware platform the system is based on. The analysis of currently available computer architectures has shown that such systems offer a lot of security gaps. This is due to the fact that in the past hardware has only been optimized for speed - never for security. In this paper we propose a set of hardware features to support system security.
