Synopsys与Cypherbridge联手以优化的软件/硬件安全解决方案加速针对物联网通讯的传输层安全（TLS）的开发

Combination of Cypherbridge uSSL SDK and DesignWare SSL/TLS/DTLS Security Protocol Accelerator Speeds Software Development

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Feb. 18, 2016 -- Synopsys, Inc. (Nasdaq:SNPS) today announced a collaboration with Cypherbridge Systems to optimize Cypherbridge's uSSL™ software development kit (SDK) for the Synopsys DesignWare® SSL/TLS/DTLS Security Protocol Accelerator (SPAcc). The joint solution enables the offload of cryptographic functions to dedicated hardware, giving system architects the ability to reallocate the CPU to other functions or use a smaller CPU. The combined SDK and DesignWare SPAcc accelerate the development of device software drivers for the transport layer security (TLS) protocol, which is used as the encryption layer in web browser, Internet of Things (IoT), payment terminal and industrial control applications.

The DesignWare SPAcc speeds the record processing of commonly used security protocols including secure socket layer (SSL), TLS and datagram transport layer security (DTLS) via a highly configurable architecture that provides the exact functionality and performance level required for a specific application. The SPAcc can also accelerate lower-level cipher, hash/MAC and public key operations, as well as several high-level functions used during the handshake protocol performed by SSL, TLS, or DTLS protocols.

SDKs that rely on a system heap can result in memory fragmentation, negatively impacting system performance. The Cypherbridge uSSL SDK is an ANSI C thread-free library with an integrated memory manager for a zero-heap solution. It is available with out-of-the-box support for the most widely used embedded operating systems, TCP stacks and target development kits. The SDK and SPAcc solution offloads TLS record processing to the SPAcc for optimized performance and design efficiency, reducing CPU load and improving power balancing.

"Designers are finding that a significant percentage of their development time is spent optimizing their software stack for the SoC hardware," said Steve DeLaney, founder at Cypherbridge Systems. "By leveraging our uSSL SDK with Synopsys' DesignWare Security Protocol Accelerator, designers can accelerate their software development and ultimately get their products to market faster."

"Connected devices ranging from routers to baby monitors increasingly require stringent security technology to prevent malicious attacks and data breaches," said John Koeter, vice president of marketing for IP and prototyping at Synopsys. "Our collaboration with Cypherbridge helps designers, who may not have deep security protocol knowledge, to implement the TLS protocol quickly and efficiently."
