Overview

Complex system-on-chip (SoC) requirements can include security at the MAC layer, VPN layer, and application layer. The SynopsysSecurity Protocol Accelerator (SPAcc) IP addresses these needs with support for the Wi-Fi, MACsec, IPsec, SSL/TLS/DTLS, and SRTP security standards. The SPAcc
IP offers high throughput with support for mixed packet size traffic and low latency to preserve quality of service in voice and video applications in single- and multi-core processor architectures. The product is a highly customer configurable enabling solution to be tuned for specific applications providing differentiation in the market.
The Synopsys SPAcc optionally includes the following cryptographic support:

• 3GPP/LTE/LTE-Advanced wireless security: ZUC, SNOW 3G and KASUMI algorithms
• Chinese security: SM3 and SM4 algorithms
• DPA/TA side channel countermeasures: for AES, SM4, DES/3DES algorithms

Benefits

  • Highly customer configurable, silicon- proven security accelerators
  • Support for cipher, hash and AEAD algorithms used in major security protocols using parallel hashing and encryption
  • AES, DES/3DES
  • SHA-3 hashing, HMAC, KMAC, cSHAKE, and XOF support
  • ChaCha20 cipher, Poly1305 hash and combined AEAD algorithm
  • Built-in scatter/gather DMA capability offloads the host processor

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.
