Focus:
The economics and consumer-chain practices of secure hardware adoption.

Goals:

  • Understand the benefits of secure hardware adoption, and how such benefits are measured and perceived.

  • Identify the costs of security failures arising out of the lack of such practices.

  • Assess what value gains are expected from software add-ons and developer platforms on top of enhanced security at hardware.

  • Identify what practices offset such value through various stages of the use case lifecycle.

Theme of Core Research:
Adoption
