Congratulations to Dr. Tao Wei and Dr. Qing Yang for winning an NSF Secure and Trustworthy Cyberspace award

URI is awarded $600,000 to research a new security technology that protects data confidentiality, data integrity, and correctness in computer systems. Specifically, the new technology is able to instantly detect malicious hardware attacks so that appropriate actions can be taken to prevent information from stolen and alteration when information is transmitted between components inside a computer system. The new technology can be realized using a simple digital hardware as part of a computer system. One of the objectives of this project is to design, develop, and implement the new hardware structure to be incorporated in future secure computers. The PIs of this project are Dr. Tao Wei and Dr. Qing Yang. Congratulations!
