  • ID: 6057587
Hardware Security: A Hands On Learning Approach, Second Edition provides a broad, comprehensive, and practical overview of hardware security that encompasses all levels of the electronic hardware infrastructure. The book covers basic concepts like advanced attack techniques and countermeasures that are illustrated through theory, case studies, and well designed, hands on laboratory exercises for each key concept. The book is ideal as a textbook for upper level undergraduate students studying computer engineering, computer science, electrical engineering, and biomedical engineering, but is also a handy reference for graduate students, researchers and industry professionals.

For academic courses, the book contains a robust suite of teaching ancillaries. Users of the book can access schematic, layout and design files for a printed circuit board for hardware hacking (i.e., the HaHa board), a suite of videos that demonstrate different hardware vulnerabilities, hardware attacks and countermeasures, and a detailed description and user manual for companion materials.
