Kilopass and Certicom Give Technical Talk on Hardware Security Requirements for Embedded Encryption Key Storage
December 03 2007 - 12:19PM
Marketwired
GRENOBLE, FRANCE and Kilopass Technology Inc., a leading CMOS
Logic Non-Volatile Memory (NVM) Intellectual Property (IP)
supplier, will present on Hardware Security Requirements for
Embedded Encryption Key Storage. The technical presentation will be
given by Craig Rawlings of Kilopass Technology Inc. and Mike
Bursell of Certicom.
Background Information
In November, Kilopass and Certicom announced a partnership to
deliver comprehensive security for High-Bandwidth Digital Content
Protection (HDCP) applications. Certicom� KeyInject(TM) is being
integrated into the new Kilopass XPM Xtend(TM) memory IP to protect
against security breaches during the HDCP chip manufacturing
process to automate key logistics, diminish liability, improve
tracking and reduce costs related to chip manufacturing and silicon
testing of HDCP keys.
This solution is important given the growing number of extremely
expensive security breach penalties involving HDTVs, recording and
playback devices and the manufacturing processes that create these
products.

Thursday, 6 December, 2007 12:45pm
Where:
Room 1, World Trade Center
5 place Robert Schuman
Grenoble, FRANCE

About Certicom KeyInject and XPM Xtend
Working closely, Certicom and Kilopass provide a secure path for
sensitive cryptographic keys directly from the licensor of the key
through to the target device. Keys that are unique to individual
devices need both a secure NVM storage technology and a solution
that protects these keys throughout the manufacturing supply chain.
Combined, KeyInject and XPM Xtend provide security for modern
semiconductor manufacturing processes as well as at the device
level with physical layer security that protects key information
inside the target device. XPM Xtend is supported for mainstream
TSMC process technologies between 180nm and 65nm today.
