Researchers are developing methods to detect tampering in hardware and create more secure, transparent chips. They are using open-source software to analyze chip designs for vulnerabilities like hardware Trojans. Additionally, they are enhancing chips with quantum-secure circuits to protect against future quantum computer attacks, addressing the challenge that hardware, unlike software, cannot be easily updated or repaired after manufacturing.
