A chain is only as strong as its weakest link. This wisdom also applies to the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), autonomous and connected vehicles and important critical infrastructures, as even high investments in software security do not guarantee a holistically secure system. Complete security for Industry 4.0 applications, from self-driving cars to intelligent transport networks, can only be achieved if comprehensive hardware security is ensured.

To prevent IP theft, manipulation and network attacks, an end-to-end security concept is required that starts at the hardware level. Intelligent, networked products and systems are based on secure and trustworthy software and hardware. Electronic components such as sensors and actuators, which are manufactured and used in the context of Industry 4.0, must provide trustworthy and reliable measurement data and implement actions at all times.
