Secure Boot

 


Intrinsic-ID's Quiddikey™ Secure Boot solution for embedded devices comprising

  • A hardware Quiddikey key storage IP instance
  • A SHA-256 or AES hardware IP core for authentication
  • On-chip or off-chip enrollment software
  • A PC Software image signing tool

Functionality:

Intrinsic-ID’s solution for secure boot allows to securely boot up an embedded system from minimal on-chip ROM and Flash-based software. It does not require any on-chip non-volatile memory to hold any symmetric keys, hashes or public keys for software image integrity checks, making it the industry’s most flexible solution.

Advantages:

  • Strong cryptographic authentication of customer software images
  • No on-chip non-volatile memory required for key storage
  • Low cost and flexibility, one chip serving multiple customers

Applications:

  • Secure Boot
  • Anti-cloning and anti-copy protection
