From our customers’ royalty reports, we know that they shipped more than 10 billion ARM- based chips in 2013 (a 20% increase over 2012), as they see increasing demand for low-power smart products from consumers and enterprises. 2014 will bring exciting opportunities and challenges as ARM competes in new markets where we are well positioned to succeed with our leading technology, innovative business model and thriving ecosystem of Partners. 4 Our Vision Our Performance Our Commitment Our Financial Report The knowledge and creativity of our people and the ability to deliver customer satisfaction in an increasingly demanding and competitive environment are the key determinants of our success.

  • A Systematic Survey of Firmware Extraction Techniques for Iot Devices
    Breaking all the Things | A Systematic Survey of Firmware Extraction Techniques for IoT Devices Sebastian Vasile, David Oswald, and Tom Chothia University of Birmingham [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Abstract. In this paper, we systematically review and categorize differ- ent hardware-based firmware extraction techniques, using 24 examples of real, wide-spread products, e.g. smart voice assistants (in particular Amazon Echo devices), alarm and access control systems, as well as home automation devices. We show that in over 45% of the cases, an exposed UART interface is sufficient to obtain a firmware dump, while in other cases, more complicated, yet still low-cost methods (e.g. JTAG or eMMC readout) are needed. In this regard, we perform an in-depth investiga- tion of the security concept of the Amazon Echo Plus, which contains significant protection methods against hardware-level attacks. Based on the results of our study, we give recommendations for countermeasures to mitigate the respective methods. 1 Introduction Extracting the firmware from IoT devices is a crucial first step when analysing the security of such systems. From a designer's point of view, preventing the firmware from falling into the hands of an adversary is often desirable: for in- stance, to protect cryptographic keys that identify a device and to impede prod- uct counterfeit or IP theft. The large variety of IoT devices results in different approaches to firmware extraction, depending on the device in question. Past work has looked at the state of security of IoT devices, e.g.
