草榴社区 PUF FPGA-X Base/Premium
FPGAs are widely used in mission-critical environments with specific processing needs. Motivations for copying or altering sensitive data or valuable IP are abundant. Especially in government and aerospace, attacks can result in loss of IP, leakage of top-secret information, and compromised national security. A way for designers to secure their FPGAs, their sensitive data, and communications is the use of cryptography. Authenticity, integrity, and confidentiality can be guaranteed by using strong cryptographic keys rooted in the hardware of the FPGA.
草榴社区 PUF FPGA-X combines a Butterfly Physical Unclonable Function (PUF) with the 草榴社区 PUF helper data algorithms. Butterfly-shaped circuits are configured on the fabric of the FPGA to intrinsically generate the entropy needed for a strong trust anchor. Keys derived from 草榴社区 PUF FPGA-X are volatile and derived only when required, providing a significant high-security assurance. Since 草榴社区 PUF FPGA-X is part of the FPGA configuration file, it is a “soft PUF” implementation, and security functionality can be retrofitted on deployed devices, enabling remote “brownfield” installation of hardware-based security.
草榴社区 PUF FPGA-X Base/Premium – Datasheet
- Proven “Soft” PUF implementation for AMD/Xilinx FPGAs, part of the FPGA configuration file
- Offers FPGA users a cryptographic technology to secure their own keys and to authenticate devices and communications between them on networks.
- Enables remote “brownfield” installation of hardware-based security
- Offers key provisioning, wrapping, and unwrapping to enable secure key storage across the supply chain and for the lifetime of the device
- Keys are never stored, but re-created from the PUF each time they are needed, offering a higher level of security than traditional key storage in NVM
- Keys are bound to the device and can only be recreated and accessed on the device they have been created on
