The Accellera Security Annotation for Electronic Design Integration (SA-EDI) standard provides a framework for producing security assurance collateral for an IP. The root of the standard and its workflow is the identification of assets for a given IP. Once the assets are identified, the corresponding threats and attack surfaces can be determined to help an Integrator address risks in their integrated circuits (ICs). Therefore, if an asset was mistakenly identified, either a false positive or a false negative, the rest of the collateral would become invalid. Unfortunately, the standard provides little guidance on identifying assets and avoiding false positives/negatives. This paper proposes two methodologies for asset identification within an IP using conceptual and structural analysis (CSA) and points of influence and observation (PIO).

Other Activities From This Working Group
Current projects that have been authorized by the IEEE SA Standards Board to develop a standard.
No Active Projects
Standards approved by the IEEE SA Standards Board that are within the 10-year lifecycle.
No Active Standards
These standards have been replaced with a revised version of the standard, or by a compilation of the original active standard and all its existing amendments, corrigenda, and errata.
No Superseded Standards
These standards have been removed from active status through a ballot where the standard is made inactive as a consensus decision of a balloting group.
No Inactive-Withdrawn Standards
These standards are removed from active status through an administrative process for standards that have not undergone a revision process within 10 years.
No Inactive-Reserved Standards
