SUSHI@NIST: Rolling Next-Generation Secure Hardware into Standards

Hardware security is vital to national defense, economic resilience, and emerging technologies amid geopolitical uncertainty and semiconductor disruptions. Modern systems face escalating hardware-level threats that bypass conventional protections, endangering critical infrastructure, privacy, and performance. 

The 2026 SUSHI@NIST Workshop convenes leaders across sectors to build scalable, sustainable, and mission-aligned solutions. Key themes include threat mitigation, supply chain assurance, AI-integrated system protection, and firmware resilience. The workshop will also launch a “Semiconductor Development Life Cycle Security Framework”, shaping national strategy and guiding trusted microelectronics design, deployment, and adoption. Stakeholder engagement is essential to secure our semiconductor future.
