hardware-based security

Hardware-based security refers to using physical devices and components to protect information and systems from unauthorized access and cyber threats. This can include secure chips, tokens, or hardware security modules that store sensitive data, encryption keys, or user authentication information. Unlike software solutions, which can be vulnerable to hacking, hardware security provides a more robust and tamper-resistant layer of protection. Devices equipped with these security features help ensure the integrity and confidentiality of data, making it much harder for attackers to compromise a system.
