The idea to publish a special issue on hardware and embedded security stems from a workshop with the same name where previously published conference and journal papers were presented. The papers published here present extended and adjusted versions of these works to fit under this common umbrella. My special thanks goes to Prof. Ramesh Karri from NYU who had discussed this idea with me back in 2019. Thanks to his continued efforts and ideas, this special issue became a reality. I also wish to thank the Guest Editors, Rosario Cammarota and Francesco Regazzoni, who have managed the special issue and grouped the ten papers into the five categories: “microarchitectural side- and covert-channel analysis,” “end-to-end defense lines in hardware security,” “security of IP protection techniques for IC and ML,” “physical side-channel analysis,” and “cryptographic hardware.”

硬件和嵌入式安全性的热门精选

的主意出版一个有关硬件和嵌入式安全性的特刊，源于一个研讨会，该研讨会的名字与以前发表的会议和期刊论文的名字相同。在此发表的论文介绍了这些作品的扩展和调整版本，以适应这个共同的框架。我要特别感谢纽约大学的Ramesh Karri教授，他在2019年与我讨论了这个想法。由于他的不懈努力和想法，这一特刊成为了现实。我还要感谢客座编辑Rosario Cammarota和Francesco Regazzoni，他们完成了特刊并将十篇论文归为五类：“微体系结构侧边和隐蔽通道分析”，“端到端防御线”硬件安全”，“用于IC和ML的IP保护技术的安全性”，“物理侧信道分析”，
