SmartFusion2 SoC FPGAs and IGLOO2 FPGAs Solutions Offering Secures Machine-to-machine Connections From the Node to the Cloud in the Internet of Things

 

ALISO VIEJO, Calif., Dec. 18, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Microsemi Corporation (Nasdaq: MSCC), a leading provider of semiconductor solutions differentiated by power, security, reliability and performance, today announced its SmartFusion2® SoC FPGAs and IGLOO2® FPGAs "Securing the Internet of Things" (IoT) solution was recognized by EE Times as a Top Tech at Electronica 2014. EE Times Europe looked at top technologies from Electronica Europe 2014, and ranked Microsemi in the top nine amongst companies looking to secure machine-to-machine connections from the node to the cloud in the IoT.

The Center for Strategic and International Studies estimates the annual cost of cybercrime and economic espionage to the world economy at more than $445 billion—or almost 1 percent of global income. SmartFusion2 SoC FPGAs and IGLOO2 FPGAs provide the most advanced design and data security capabilities starting with a robust root-of-trust device with secure key storage capability using the SoC FPGA industry's only physically unclonable function (PUF) key enrollment and regeneration capability from Intrinsic ID. This becomes a seed for Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) where only the chip knows the private key and it doesn't vary. This also allows developers and architects to easily extend the root-of-trust in SmartFusion2 and IGLOO2 devices to other components in the system or network which greatly simplifies system security.

 

"As new products and solutions are developed for the IoT, Microsemi will continue to strive to provide system architects and system designers with the industry's most secure SoC FPGAs for their new IoT applications," said Russ Garcia, executive vice president of worldwide marketing at Microsemi. "We are excited that EE Times recognized our approach to device security as one of the top technologies at Electronica, and a key element to providing secure solutions for the IoT."

 

SmartFusion2 is also the only SoC FPGA protected from differential power analysis (DPA) attacks using technology from the Cryptography Research Incorporated (CRI) portfolio. Microsemi's programmable logic solutions are used extensively in mainstream applications, critical communications systems and enterprise infrastructure, as well as military, aviation and space applications due to their low power, reliability and protection against Single Event Upset (SEU) occurrences, which can cause binary bits to change state and corrupt data and cause hardware malfunction.
