Security News > 2023 > April > Security beyond software: The open source hardware security evolution
Recognition of the importance of hardware security-upon which all software security is built-is also growing.
To fight increasingly sophisticated security threats, more advanced security safeguards are expected to emerge at the hardware level.
An organization selecting an ISA should consider its compatibility with other security tools and software to ensure a cohesive security posture.
Open source accelerates hardware security's evolution.
The collaboration and knowledge-sharing intrinsic to open source projects accelerate how well new and existing hardware security technologies develop.
With source code and hardware designs open for developers and security experts to review, test and report weaknesses, and work together to patch and improve, open source hardware-based security innovation brings a level of creative contributions and testing that closed-source development cannot match.
