FAQs

Can semiconductor manufacturers restrict access to specific labs?

Absolutely! LiveBench understands the importance of protecting your intellectual property (IP). We offer granular user access controls, allowing you to decide which labs each SDE customer can access. This flexibility enables you to:

  • Tailor Access Based on Agreements: Grant access to labs relevant to specific product lines or customer agreements.
  • Protect Sensitive Technologies: Restrict access to labs containing highly sensitive or confidential hardware components.
  • Manage Customer Tiers: Offer different levels of access based on customer tier or partnership agreements.

LiveBench utilizes a multi-layered security approach to ensure authorized access:

  • User Authentication: Each SDE customer is assigned a unique login and password for secure access to the platform.
  • Role-Based Access Control (RBAC): Administrators can assign specific roles to SDE users, with each role granting access to predefined sets of labs.
  • Lab-Level Permissions: In addition to role-based controls, you can further restrict access to individual labs within each category.

LiveBench prioritizes data security. We employ robust measures to safeguard your IP, including:

  • Data Encryption: All data transmitted between the SDE user and LiveBench servers is encrypted using industry-standard protocols.
  • Secure Data Storage: Test data is stored on secure servers with access restricted to authorized personnel.
  • Regular Security Audits: LiveBench undergoes regular security audits to identify and address any potential vulnerabilities.

LiveBench offers Single Sign-On (SSO) capabilities, allowing you to integrate user authentication with your existing customer management systems. This simplifies user management and ensures consistent access controls across all platforms.

LiveBench provides comprehensive documentation and tutorials for each lab setup and equipment operation. Additionally, a support team is available to answer your questions and assist with troubleshooting.
