A bstract: Sensor communication utilizing controllers today remains largely unprotected. Most analog front-end sensors are severely constrained in power and computing resources to keep costs low. Sensor manufacturers often leave security to the equipment manufacturers who integrate the sensors, but this design consideration is typically treated as an afterthought, leaving vulnerabilities exposed. While some sensors can be physi...
