Hardware vulnerabilities and risks --- In the course we mostly talk about software vulnerabilities, but what about hardware vulnerabilities? Especially in hardware components that are produced by only 3-4 firms globally (semi-conductor industry, chip manufacturing). How frequent are attacks based on hardware vulnerabilities/faults in comparison to software vulnerabilities? I can recall the Huawei 5g equipment example in this context.
