AES-SX Secure Core - High-Throughput AES Core with Advanced SCA/FI Protection for Performance-Critical Systems

Overview

High-Throughput AES Core with Advanced SCA/FI Protection for Performance-Critical Systems

FortifyIQ’s High-Performance AES IP core is a fast, silicon-proven cryptographic engine designed for systems with demanding encryption workloads. Built on a 20 S-box parallel architecture, it delivers exceptional AES-128/256 encryption and decryption throughput while supporting standard modes including ECB, CBC, and CTR (excluding GCM, XTS, and CBC-MAC). Integrated RAMBAM-based protections provide robust resistance against side-channel and fault injection attacks, applied algorithmically at the RTL level and validated by a Common Criteria accredited lab. Engineered for security-critical applications like secure networking, high-end embedded platforms, and storage encryption, the core is fully certifiable under FIPS 140-3 and Common Criteria.

Key Features

  • Efficient Performance
  • SCA/FIA Protections, DFA optional 
  • Flexible Interfaces
  • Security Certification Readiness

Benefits

  • Ultra-low power in terms of performance per watt
