Contact Provider Request Datasheet

Overview

IPsec (Internet Protocol Security) is a widely implemented protocol to secure communications across the Internet. The IPsec core enhances secure communication at layer three (Network) of the OSI model, ensuring the authenticity and confidentiality of data traffic. It leverages the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) in Galois Counter Mode (GCM) with a 256-bit key length, for Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) frame processing within the IPsec protocol.

Xiphera's scalable extreme-speed IPsec IP core is tailored for high-bandwidth applications, ranging from 10 Gbps to 200 Gbps links. Designed for seamless integration, our IP core supports a vendor-agnostic design methodology, making it adaptable across various high-end FPGA or ASIC environments.

Rapid ESP packet encryption/decryption
Packet processing performed in five different modes: authentication and encryption with or without Initialisation Vector, or passing payload as it is.

IPsec implementation can be adapted with enhancements and optimisations, based on customer requirements and the selected hardware architecture.

Bringing IPsec into the Quantum Safe Era

Over the next five years, all security protocols and public key cryptography will undergo a comprehensive overhaul to ensure quantum safety. This represents the most significant change in these domains since the advent of public key cryptography.

How to design secure SoCs, Part V: Data Protection and Encryption

In today’s connected world, where data is a crucial asset in SoCs, Part V of our series explores how to protect and encrypt data, whether at rest, in transit, or in use building on our earlier blog posts of the series: Essential security features for digital designers, key management, secure boot, and runtime integrity.

Cryptography Does Not Equal Security

At Rambus, we often receive RFIs, RFPs and RFQs for security silicon IP cores to be used in our customer’s next semiconductor product. Such requests often contain a long shopping list of required cryptographic algorithms, their modes of operation, their key lengths or strengths and performance and sizing requirements.
