As the importance of embedded security continues to grow, the need for proven security solutions that are compliant with industry standards and easy for developers to use at an optimized cost is also increasing.
Microchip Technology Inc. (NASDAQ: MCHP) today announced the availability of six new CryptoAuthentication and CryptoAutomotive IC families that support Common Criteria (CC) certified Joint Interpretation Library (JIL) High level secure key storage and Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) certified algorithms, providing developers with comprehensive embedded security solutions.
These new secure authentication products lower the barrier to entry more than ever before, enabling new segments and application developers to implement trusted authentication to prevent fraud, improve quality control and protect user experiences. As counterfeiting becomes more prevalent across a number of industries, the need to embed reliability into many designs is growing.
The new products are supported by Microchip’s Trust Platform Design Suite (TPDS), a proprietary software platform used to securely onboard the ICs with Microchip’s secure key provisioning service. Its scalability enables provisioning of cryptographic assets in projects of virtually any size – from dozens of devices to large-scale deployments – across a wide range of industries, including consumer products, medical disposables, automotive and industrial accessory ecosystems, wireless charging and data centers.
Microchip has added five new hardware-based secure storage devices to its CryptoAuthentication IC family: ECC204 (ECC-P256 signing and HMAC), ECC206 (2-pin parasitic power, ECC-P256 signing and HMAC), SHA104 (client SHA256 MAC), SHA105 (host SHA256 CheckMAC), and SHA106 (2-pin parasitic power, client SHA256 MAC). These ICs are designed to hide secret keys from unauthorized attackers.
The sixth and final new product is the CryptoAutomotive IC, designed for the automotive market. The TA010 with ECC signature and HMAC is AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualified, enabling OEMs to implement secure authentication into their designs without costly modifications, meeting the security requirements of future generations of vehicles.
Microchip’s security products are compatible with any microprocessor (MPU) or microcontroller (MCU) and are available as companion devices for Microchip’s AVR MCUs and Arm core-based MPUs and MCUs. These security authentication ICs provide versatile solutions that enable customers to continue to comply with evolving industry standards and practices.
“These additions to Microchip’s security portfolio enable developers to add critical security capabilities to cost-sensitive applications that have traditionally had limited or no secure authentication capabilities,” said Nuri Dagdeviren, vice president of Microchip’s Secure Products Group. “Microchip continues to be committed to developing cutting-edge, cost-optimized security products that address a broad range of end applications.”
