The Huawei and Snowden questions: Can electronic equipment from untrusted vendors be verified? Can an untrusted vendor build trust into electronic equipment? - volume 4

This title answers two central questions: firstly, is it at all possible to verify electronic equipment procured from untrusted vendors?

Secondly, can I build trust into my products in such a way that I support verification by untrusting customers?

In separate chapters the book takes readers through the state of the art in fields of computer science that can shed light on these questions.

In a concluding chapter it discusses realistic ways forward.

In discussions on cyber security, there is a tacit assumption that the manufacturer of equipment will collaborate with the user of the equipment to stop third-party wrongdoers.
