AmpliTech Group & SN2N Successfully Complete Proof of Concept Test Verification of Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) with ‘Unhackable’ Encryption Security
February 28 2022 - 9:15AM
AmpliTech Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: AMPG), a designer,
developer, and manufacturer of state-of-the-art signal-processing
components for satellite, 5G, and other communications networks and
a worldwide distributor of packages and lids for integrated circuit
assembly, announced that it and its joint venture partner SN2N LLC
have delivered a fully working proof of concept of their Field
Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) solution, with an
intelligence-community-caliber hardware encryption communications
channel.
This joint development effort was designed to provide clients
with a unique layer of security at the hardware level without
sacrificing performance while addressing the growing need for
additional security in solutions that require wireless connections.
The successful test verification of the FPGA solution enables the
team to move into transferring the technology achieved into
commercial-grade programmable ASICs (application-specific
integrated circuits) with integrated hardware security.
This international patent-pending technology is based on
proprietary chipsets, which provide extremely secure data transfer
to the cell towers of any mobile service provider, hi-speed public
WiFi clouds, automotive electronic control units (ECUs), servers,
routers, PDAs, cell phones, etc. AmpliTech is the exclusive
manufacturer for the low noise amplifier (LNA) product line used
with this encryption technology.
Security is a top concern for any entity transmitting data.
Hacking events worldwide have proven to be costly, and with the
amount of money paid in ransoms, this hacking activity is expected
to increase and continue for years to come. Currently, amplifiers
used by companies on any type of infrastructure having to do with
wireless transmissions are not themselves encrypted at the hardware
level and stand to benefit greatly from the joint venture's
communications solution, designed to deliver far greater bandwidth,
higher data transfer speeds, and integrated hardware security.
The market opportunity is being fueled by anticipated rapid
growth in the deployment of Low Earth Orbit Satellites
communications, as well as the build-out of true 5G communications
networks that can achieve transmission speeds of up to 20 gigabits
per second (Gbps) or approximately 400X faster than current 5G
performance of roughly 50 megabits per second (Mbps). The joint
venture's solution seeks to allow network providers to achieve
substantially improved data carriage capacity, speed, and security,
while significantly reducing related Capex requirements, enabling
AmpliTech Group to be the only provider of 5G networks with this
anti-hackable encryption security solution.
CEO Fawad Maqbool, stated, "SN2N was formed by a highly
experienced team of cyber security experts to provide affordable
state-of-the-art hardware-based security technologies previously
only available to the global intelligence community for National
Security applications. We both see today that the lack of
hardware-level encryption in communication systems today could pose
threats to communication systems across industries. Our
vision is to address the urgent need to provide secure
next-generation data transmission capabilities to support the
projected exponential growth in data transmission in the coming
years. AmpliTech Group’s 20% ownership of SN2N, with
exclusive use of the technology for all wireless LNA applications,
underscores AmpliTech’s commitment to innovation and leadership in
building upon our best-in-class solutions to deliver new and
enhanced products with unrivaled performance and value to our
customers. Our size and innovative culture enable us to move
quickly and efficiently – something that is largely impossible at
larger, less entrepreneurial companies.”
About AmpliTech (www.amplitechinc.com) AmpliTech Group,
Inc. designs, develops, manufactures, and distributes
state-of-the-art radio frequency (RF) microwave components for
global satellite communications, telecom (5G & IoT), space,
defense, and quantum computing markets, as well as systems and
component design consulting services. In December 2021, AmpliTech
completed the purchase of the assets and operations of Spectrum
Semiconductor Materials Inc., a global specialty distributor of
semiconductor components based in San Jose, CA. AmpliTech has a 13+
year track record of developing high performance, custom solutions
to meet the unique needs of some of the largest companies in the
global industries we serve. We are proud of the unique skills,
experience and dedication of our focused team, which enables us to
deliver superior solutions, faster time to market, competitive
pricing and excellent customer satisfaction and repeat
business.
About SN2N LLC (www.sn2n.com) SN2N is a developer of
low-cost, patent pending, platform-independent data protection and
encryption solutions, where its innovation is not the actual
encryption but rather a very difficult, if not
impossible-to-hack-or-spoof setup of the secure communications.
SN2N’s solution consists of hardware and software integrated
systems based on mathematics and quantum physics. This includes a
unique integrated hardware and software technique for encryption
keys selection for respective communication sessions, with no
predictability that a hacker could detect or use. The
hardware-based secure handshake technology, utilized by our device,
requires consensus approval of both parties prior to granting
access to sensitive information.
