Abstract

This paper proposes a security framework for secure data communications across the partners in the Semiconductor Supply Chain Environment. The security mechanisms of the proposed framework will be based on the SSL/TLS and OAuth 2.0 protocols, which are two standard security protocols. However, both protocols are vulnerable to a number of attacks, and thus more sophisticated security mechanisms based on these protocols should be designed and implemented in order to address the specific security challenges of the Semiconductor Supply Chain in a more effective and efficient manner.
