Actel FPGAs offer DPA resistance for designers
Actel
FPGAs
Actel has announced that customers designing with Smartfusion, Fusion, Proasic3 and Igloo devices can now protect their secret keys from DPA attacks.
This is because several of its FPGAs are now usable with cryptographic cores offering differential power analysis (DPA) resistance.
Customers can protect their secret keys from such attacks by implementing AES, GCM or ECC intellectual property cores from IP Cores that are said to be the first commercially available cryptographic cores for FPGAs offering DPA resistance.
