Overview

The TRNG IP core establishes a benchmark for hardware-based security in cryptographic systems, by generating high-entropy, true random numbers essential for secure communications and cryptographic operations, such as key generation. It includes a robust and thoroughly characterised entropy source, online health tests and a proven AES-CBC-MAC-based entropy extractor.

The IP core conforms to the stringent requirements of NIST standards and widely used test suites, while offering flexibility and broad compatibility for both FPGA and ASIC designs. It is an essential component of security protocols such as TLS 1.3 and MACsec.

The TRNG core integrates robust health monitoring systems to ensure the highest level of randomness and security under any operational conditions.

It includes advanced noise reduction techniques to optimise entropy quality, further strengthening against predictability and enhancing the system's cryptographic security.

The Silent Guardian of AI Compute - PUFrt Unifies Hardware Security and Memory Repair to Build the Trust Foundation for AI Factories

At the scale of the Vera Rubin platform, yield, calibration, and security failures compound across tens of thousands of devices. A single unified hardware anchor at the silicon level is not optional, it is architectural necessity. A physical unclonable function-based hardware root-of-trust, PUFrt, jointly developed by eMemory and PUFsecurity, was designed precisely for this role: a fully integrated implementation of the Caliptra 2.0 open standard that simultaneously manages cross-die memory repair and hardware root of trust across the full platform.

A Comprehensive Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) Solution based on Physical Unclonable Function (PUF)

This article provides an in-depth analysis of the specific PPA challenges introduced by PQC and elucidates how PUF-PQC leverages its unique dualtrack strategy to deliver a robust and flexible Hardware Root of Trust (HRoT) across diverse application scenarios. Furthermore, it demonstrates the integration of Physical Unclonable Function (PUF) with a NIST SP 800-90B compliant True Random Number Generator (TRNG) to serve as critical components of PUFrt (Root of Trust), ensuring the security of post-quantum key generation starting from the entropy source.
