Mouser Provides Design Engineers with Digital Defence Knowledge in New Security Resource Centre
Mouser Electronics, Inc., the industry’s leading New Product Introduction (NPI) distributor with the widest selection of semiconductors and electronic components™, equips electronic design engineers with the latest cybersecurity and product knowledge in its comprehensive security resource centre. As technology advances, so do the methods of cybercriminals, demanding innovative and adaptable defence strategies. Two prominent and increasingly complex issues in today’s landscape are the rise of generative AI phishing and the rapid growth of the Internet of Things (IoT). These challenges emphasise the need for both technological solutions and heightened human awareness to ensure digital safety.

The field of cybersecurity has quickly evolved in response to the increasing sophistication of digital threats. Generative AI, for instance, is reshaping the phishing landscape by creating personalised, grammatically accurate, and contextually relevant attacks at scale. At the same time, the rapid deployment of IoT devices often leads to limited processing power, infrequent patch cycles, and suboptimal security configurations, leaving many devices and connected systems unprotected. Addressing these vulnerabilities requires a rigorous approach to IoT defence measures and component selection. These potential threats highlight the critical importance of modern cybersecurity models like zero-trust architecture. This approach requires verification for all access requests, taking into account identity, contextual factors, and real-time risk assessments.
Mouser stocks the industry’s widest selection of semiconductors and electronic components, including the following products and solutions for security applications:
● The STM32N6 high-performance microcontrollers from STMicroelectronics are powered by the Arm® Cortex®-M55, running at 800MHz. These MCUs introduce Arm Helium™ vector processing for DSP capabilities and feature the ST Neural-ART accelerator™, an in-house NPU designed for power-efficient edge AI applications. The MCUs support real-time neural network inference for computer vision and audio tasks, making them ideal for automotive, smart home, and personal healthcare applications.
● The AR0145CS Hyperlux™ SG image sensors by onsemi are 1/4.3″ CMOS digital image sensors with an active-pixel array of 1280 (H) x 800 (V). They incorporate an innovative global shutter pixel design optimised for accurate and fast capture of moving scenes. The AR0145CS produces extraordinarily clear, sharp digital pictures and can capture both continuous video and single frames, which makes the sensors the perfect choice for a wide range of applications, including scanning and industrial inspection.
● The S2GO SECURITY OPTIGA™ Trust X Shield2Go board by Infineon Technologies is a “plug and play” prototyping board featuring the OPTIGA Trust X security controller. This turnkey security solution for industrial automation, smart homes, and consumer devices protects authenticity, integrity, and confidentiality through mutual authentication, secured communication, data store protection, and platform integrity protection.
● The EdgeLock A5000 Secure Authenticator from NXP Semiconductors offers Common Criteria EAL 6+ certified security, with symmetric and asymmetric crypto. The A5000 is used for simple authentication, complementing NXP’s EdgeLock secure element family portfolio. It is an optimised and dedicated authentication product, making it ideal for battery systems, medical, and smart home applications.
Mouser’s resource content hub features comprehensive articles, blogs, eBooks, and products from Mouser’s technical team and trusted manufacturing partners. In a recent eBook with NXP, 7 Experts Discuss Managing Security Risk and Regulatory Compliance at the Edge, security risk management and regulatory compliance are explained in depth to provide practical guidance on implementing defence strategies. Engineers can utilise the hub as a valuable resource to keep pace with the changing world of cybersecurity threats and ensure technological protection.
