I lead silicon security architecture and silicon security operations teams at #Google. Previously, silicon security at #Qualcomm.

These days I work on Tensor/Pixel and Android security
My thoughts on why PUF never took off in the SoC world:

tl;dr: PUF does not simplify the secure manufacturing trust model. Not having to generate the root private key is cool. But you cannot do much with it without extracting the corresponding public key.

Xi and Trump could have been born the same day!! I have never been more curious about someone's exact time of birth.

Court declines Coinbase's demand to order SEC to engage in rulemaking. Also says: SEC's refusal to Coinbase's rulemaking petition is "insufficiently reasoned, thus arbitrary and capricious". Remands to SEC for a proper explanation.
