The Enigma-CryptoManager Connection
We’re on the 11th floor of a tall glass building overlooking San Francisco’s iconic Market Street. Clanging cable cars ply the bustling streets below as the fading rays of a softly setting sun reflect off a row of remarkably preserved cipher machines, including an Enigma. The early cryptography platform – invented by Arthur Scherbius at the close of World War 1 – was used commercially during the 1920s before being adopted by various militaries for enciphering and deciphering secret messages, although it was famously cracked during World War II.
Building a foundation for secure RPMs
Approximately 100 million wearable remote patient monitoring (RPM) devices will ship over the next 5 years. According to ABI Research, the RPM market has been boosted by increased interest and awareness about the benefits of supporting healthcare away from the hospital and into patients’ homes.
Report: 204 million connected TV devices by 2017
A recent report published by the NPD Group estimates there will be 204 million connected TV devices by 2017. More specifically, streaming media players and TVs are expected to represent the majority of the growth in installed and Internet connected units over the next three years.
Securing and moving a dynamic IoT
Rambus Fellow and futurist Rich Page is perhaps best known as one of the leading engineering architects responsible for the development of early MacIntosh systems. Page was also a co-founder of NeXT Computers with Steve Jobs, where he led the design of the famed NeXT Cube, NeXTstation and Turbo NeXTstation. After NeXT, Page was president of Sierra Research and Technology, where he led state-of-the-art designs for the networking space, shipping 622-Mbps ATM, 10/100-Mbps Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet designs.
From lensless sensors to artificial intelligence
The current paradigm of computational imaging is characterized by the co-design of optics and signal processing — eliminating the need for “traditional” human-interpretable optical images. Instead, human-interpretable digital images are computed from a sensed optical image.
