Designing secure microelectronics for a connected world.
DMA-SEC is a research group within the Department of Electronic Technology at Universidad Carlos III de Madrid. Our work bridges cryptography, microelectronics and embedded security: we design primitives, evaluate implementations and harden the hardware that the digital world increasingly relies on — from random number generators and physically unclonable functions to post-quantum cryptographic engines and supply-chain trust.
Research
Our work bridges fundamental hardware security and real-world applications, from silicon roots of trust to secure connected ecosystems.
Team
From senior experts to aspiring PhD researchers, our team shares a passion for building more secure and trustworthy hardware for tomorrow.
The lab
The DMA-SEC LAB is equipped with high-end equipment that allows us to test our designs against the most demanding attack scenarios.
