Overview

ChevinID™ intelligently identifies malicious or accidental changes that occur during the production process.

  • ChevinID authorizes and authenticates hardware and software functions, and establishes a secure root of trust, while allowing the selection, control and modification of features contained within encrypted envelopes of RTL netlists
  • ChevinID can be inserted into silicon such as an FPGA, ASIC, or SiP design with Chiplets
  • ChevinID is vendor agnostic, so adds security when using products from multiple vendors in FPGAs, ASICs or Chiplets
  • ChevinID works with a server that can be located on an FPGA, a CPU with secure/protected software, or cloud hosted, with an internet connection.

Chevin Technology Limited
HQ: UK
Chevin Technology delivers high performance, configurable Ethernet IP Cores for Intel and AMD Xilinx FPGAs. Our goal is to provide reliable, hardware accelerator capabilities for high end FPGAs that are cost effective and straightforward to implement into client’s projects, using a minimum of FPGA resources. Our Ethernet IP cores are developed and comprehensively tested in-house, so we can offer valuable, expert knowledge and responsive engineering support to smooth the path for successful integration into client products. Chevin Technology’s IP Cores achieve high throughput and sustained data rates to maximise link utilization. The compact, ‘all logic’ architecture requires no CPU/SW, therefore reducing complexity, latency and energy consumption, while leaving maximum space for further design logic on customer FPGAs. Chevin Technology’s Ethernet IP Cores also feature our patented Silicon Software Solution, which provides further design flexibility and cost efficiency, as clients have the option of adding extra features as required throughout the design cycle. Client projects include international defence; medical research, scientific research, industrial imaging, data storage.

Root of Trust: A Security Essential for Cyber Defense

Imagine a datacenter powering critical cloud services, silently compromised by a tampered chip inserted during manufacturing. In most cases, the malware would be practically impossible to remove and could persist across formats/reinstalls !

Why Hardware Root of Trust Needs Anti-Tampering Design

The hardware root of trust (HRoT) provides the trust base (root key), hardware identifier (UID), hardware unique key (HUK), and entropy required for the secure operation of the entire chip and therefore is often the focus of hacker attacks. If the design can’t effectively resist attacks, hackers can easily obtain the secrets of the entire chip. Attackers can use the secrets to crack identity authentication and data encryption and steal product design know-how, causing application security problems.
