This book provides a comprehensive introduction to hardware security, from specification to implementation. Applications discussed include embedded systems ranging from small RFID tags to satellites orbiting the earth. The authors describe a design and synthesis flow, which will transform a given circuit into a secure design incorporating counter-measures against fault attacks. In order to address the conflict between testability and security, the authors describe innovative design-for-testability (DFT) computer-aided design (CAD) tools that support security challenges, engineered for compliance with existing, commercial tools. Secure protocols are discussed, which protect access to necessary test infrastructures and enable the design of secure access controllers.

This book constitutes revised selected papers from the 11th International Workshop on Constructive Side-Channel Analysis and Secure Design, COSADE 2020, held in Lugano, Switzerland, in April 2020. Due to COVID-19, the workshop was held online. The 15 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 36 submissions. The workshop covers subjects from wide ranges such as secure design, side channel attacks and countermeasures, and architectures and protocols.
