Trusted Hardware. Design Security. Data Security.
In defense, aerospace, industrial automation, Al/ML and critical infrastructure, compromise is not an option. Our PolarFire® FPGAs and SoCs offer proven, multilayered security. Starting with supply chain assurance that establishes hardware trust anchors, our tamper-resistance and secure boot secures the hardware and user design, and cryptographic engines secure the input and output data. Whether you’re deploying Linux® at the edge or operating a satellite, PolarFire FPGAs and SoC FPGAs deliver the most secure platform in that class.
Security begins with hardware. PolarFire FPGAs and SoC FPGAs deliver military-grade protection, from design through field deployment and end-of-life, featuring:
Cryptographically controlled supply chain:
- Cryptographic authentication at every step during the manufacturing flow prevents cloning and enables authentic products get built and delivered
- Device Integrity Value (DIV): You can verify the authenticity of the device procured and through the lifecycle of your system
NIST-certified crypto accelerators:
- NIST Cryptographic Algorithm Validation Program (CAVP)-certified algorithms provide compliance to standards, which enables interoperability and robust security
- Hardened crypto engines provide deterministic performance and lifelong reliability
PUF and hardware root of trust:
- Physically Unclonable Function (PUF) generates unique device-specific keys establishing a hardware root of trust for key storage and secure boot
DPA countermeasures:
- Side-channel attack resistance with Rambus’ patent-protected Differential Power Analysis (DPA) countermeasure portfolio; Cryptography Research, Inc. (CRI) pass-through license that enables you to implement side-channel-resistant solutions
