Security for SoC Interfaces Takes Center Stage in Data Protection

May 11, 2023

ue to today’s connected world, a high volume of valuable data, susceptible to tampering and physical attacks, is processed, stored, and moved between devices, cars, and data centers. With each connected device comes more data to process and ultimately secure through various interfaces and systems to the cloud. Security is on center stage in the semiconductor industry, and all interfaces and data that move across them need to be secure. Even if all the base-level protocols and standards are met, designers must ensure that the entire SoC is protected. Additionally, as technology evolves (such as quantum computing), so do the threats and ways to attack systems, requiring increasingly reliable, resilient security solutions across the board that will be needed worldwide. Synopsys considers security an integral part of design architecture, not an afterthought.

In this podcast, we will discuss the fundamentals of securing interfaces and how Synopsys’ Secure Interfaces allows designers to quickly implement the highest levels of security in their SoCs on every link while complying with the latest standards requirements, with low risk and quick time-to-market.
