About the Course

In this course, we will study security and trust from the hardware perspective. Upon completing the course, students will understand the vulnerabilities in current digital system design flow and the physical attacks to these systems. They will learn that security starts from hardware design and be familiar with the tools and skills to build secure and trusted hardware....

Great course, very helpful. The content is well organised and you need to have all the require knowledge, otherwise you won't get it.

Excellent course. I like it, and it is very straightforward and easy to understand. I hope to see more courses from this professor.

This is not a class for a non-computer scientist or a non-electrical engineer. It's frustrating to learn the material this way, but the information is valuable.

A great course for someone wants to begin thinking/design more secure hardware. I would like although more practical examples or maybe some exercises.

Nice, instructive course.

However, from time to time I felt I would need to have access to the copies of the slides, not currently available.

Complete course in order to have a clear overview of HW security. I would recommend it to all HW engineers or System Engineers as well.

Some the information around PUFs seemed a bit arbitrary,

All in all a good introductory course.

You should update the course yearly. Charging money for old course is not good.

Great but I would prefer more examples from less difficult to more difficult.

Audio quality is very poor, this makes it very difficult to understand, sometimes impossible to understand the professor which is not a native eanglish speaker. His mispronunciation and strugle with words combined with low audio volume makes it almost imposible to understand at times.

This course is an interesting overview of hardware security topics with main emphasis from discrete logic point of view. I've found some topics or details very "atomic" and hard to apply in today's tech business, it may better fit on Academic/research areas.

The material is very good, however Coursera should make a little effort in keeping it tidy (i.e. one of the Weeks had videos not in the correct order and one of the video was cut at the end).

The concepts are interesting and generally well presented.

The audio can be difficult to understand. Partially because of the Professor's accent and partially because the recording is poor. If you can get past that, it's a good course and the professor knows his stuff.

It wasn't easy to follow the videos because of inaccuracy in the transcription and not clear speech. Also some concepts were explained or defined after they were used.

A lot of it wasn't comprehensible. Also, I may have not been well prepared for it. I should have tried to learn of the background required for this course.
