Welcome to the CAP Center — A Leader in Hardware Security
Our mission is to provide the electronics industry and intelligence community with knowledge, methodology, solutions, and skilled cybersecurity engineers to help prevent penetration and manipulation of our nation’s cyber-physical infrastructures. We use noninvasive hardware and software reverse engineering techniques to assess physical layer cybersecurity vulnerabilities in embedded systems, specifically IoT devices. We also develop countermeasures to secure them against sensitive data extraction, disruption, diversion, and obfuscation.
We also specialize in System on a Chip (SoC) design which is a single integrated circuit (IC) that combines multiple essential components of a computer or electronic system onto one piece of silicon. We provide innovative (by design) security solutions that offer resiliency against side-channel and fault injection attacks.
National Center of Academic Excellence in Cybersecurity (NCAE-C)
CAP is a National Center of Academic Excellence in Cybersecurity in Cyber Defense Education (NCAE-CD). This designation signifies our commitment to developing a skilled workforce to reduce vulnerabilities in national infrastructure and meet the needs of government, industry, and academia.
