These proposals appear to be coming from the W3C Anti-Fraud Community Group. They haven't identified even a single use case[1] of the technologies they're trying to push onto the world being misused and abused. Use cases and their

Seemingly it'd be possible to attack an operating memory controller by etching with a laser, editing the circuit with a Focused Ion Beam (FIB) machine and putting some probes down to extract the key. But it's then an arms race wit

At normal DRAM module operating temperatures and assuming you want to stick to JEDEC specifications, retention times may typically be 50uS[1]. This low number is due to the standard having an extremely low tolerance for errors, and the inev

I like the personas and journey features. In formal systems engineering, a common mistake (including for the 737MAX[1]) is failing to model system users, and treating system users as completely external and separate to what is being designe

As a systems engineer[1], I really appreciate that the author mentioned requirement prioritisation. Many requirements are contradictory, and it's all too easy and common for people to avoid conflict and just agree to a cop-out set of r
