The Implementation of Hardware Security Based Zymkey 4i in HDVA

Abstract

Technology advancement has made the life of electronics users much easier. During the pandemic, the usage of a smart assistant is found to be useful and convenient in everyday task or reminder. The electronics consumers who want their everyday life to be more convenient, they sacrifice the needs of a basic cybersecurity in their everyday electronic usage. Home Digital Voice Assistant (HDVA) that comes without a monitor can pose a threatening privacy issue towards the user. This research is to provide a countermeasure to the malicious attack towards the HDVA. The result of this implementation shows that Zymkey 4i is feasible in protecting the Raspberry Pi from being tampered by using the device ‘binding’ method from Zymkey 4i.
