Overview

The ARC® SEM130FS Safety and Security Processor simplifies development of safety-critical automotive applications while enabling designers to integrate security into their SoC to protect against logical, hardware and physical attacks. The ASIL D compliant SEM130FS processor is a pre-verified dual-core lockstep implementation including a self-checking safety monitor, error correction code (ECC), and a windowed watchdog timer.

The ARC SEM130FS processor includes SecureShield™ technology to enable creation of a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) to isolate multiple execution contexts and protect secure functions from software vulnerabilities in user code. In addition, the safety and security processor provides protection from side-channel attacks featuring uniform instruction timing, timing randomization and power randomization.

The ARC SEM130FS processor is supported by a comprehensive set of safety work products and the ARC MetaWare Toolkit for Safety with ASIL D Ready certified compiler to generate ISO 26262 compliant code.

The Challenge of Automotive Hardware Security Deployment

A complete reinvention of the automotive industry is currently underway. Autonomous driving, connected vehicles, and the electrification of the powertrain all represent a once-in-a-generation shift in the manufacturing process.

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.

AndeSentry – Andes’ Security Platform

Security has become a critical requirement across a wide range of applications, including mobile devices, automotive infotainment systems, and embedded platforms such as robotics. These systems must deliver robust security functionality with minimal performance overhead, which in turn requires tight and seamless integration between hardware and software to achieve optimal efficiency.
