Chip design methodology
The chip design methodology improves cybersecurity of low-power devices such as smart cards. Partner with us to accelerate development through licensing or co-development opportunities.
The technology
The chip design methodology uses an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) to hide a chip’s encryption operations. This prevents cybersecurity breaches via side-channel attacks.
Market need
Low-power devices such as smart cards store sensitive personal data. More robust cybersecurity is needed to prevent unauthorised access.
Technology status
A chip created with the new methodology outperformed standard encryption methods. A patent has been filed for the design methodology.
