An Introduction To Security In IPsec
Early in the existence of the commercial Internet, the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) recognized that there was a need for a robust end-to-end security design for IP networks. This resulted in a number of RFCs (requests for comments) being authored to create an overlay security design in the network layer. IPsec remains the dominant virtual private networking technology and is widely deployed in handsets, gateways and carrier grade VPN service routers. This article which is hosted by networkZone introduces IPsec, outlines the required RFCs and explains how IPsec is integrated into network stacks.
Define the right approach for DRM
It's become the norm for digital rights management (DRM) designs to be cracked shortly after they're introduced. Among the reasons are poor software designs that leave keys exposed, interception of unencrypted content at a vulnerable point in the system, or the use of new and untested ciphers that are compromised.
Semiconductor Event Highlights Growing Popularity of Logic Nonvolatile Memory in New Chip Designs

LinuxInsider story on hardware
security in consumer electronics.
"As the demands that content such as high-definition television programming make on the central processors in electronic
devices grows, so, too, will the processing demands to keep that content secure. To keep those security demands from
swamping the performance of a system, system architects have started handing off those functions to embedded systems
dedicated to security."

An Overview of Secret Key and Identity Management for System-on-Chip Architects
As data communications and applications security is increasingly a requirement for modern system designs,
embedded systems architects are coming to realize that identification and authentication are a major
component of the systems they are designing. A key technological feature that must be incorporated in
these components is the ability to create and protect unique identifiers that serve to prove the identity
of connected entities to each other.
