The project, called the Secure, Automatic, Failsafe Eraser (SAFE), is able to erase the memory of devices and prevent data disclosures. Due to the emphasis on preventing illicit information transfer, treaty verification instruments are stuck with old, simple electronics with limited analysis and processing capability. Because of these limitations, the Los Alamos team came up with an improved approach. They designed a modern microcontroller or field-programmable gate array (FPGA) based device that has more processing and data
