    Hi All,

    NSA just published NSA CTR DoD Microelectronics: Levels of Assurance Definitions and Applications

    This document describes a consistent and measurable approach to addressing assurance risks in the fabrication of custom microelectronic components (CMC), comprised of Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASIC), Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA), and other microelectronic devices whose function is custom or configurable. This document defines three levels of hardware assurance and the steps necessary to apply them in the protection of custom microelectronic parts used in DoD systems.
