Synopsys Introduces ARC Security Processors for Low-Power Embedded Applications

DesignWare ARC SEM Security Processors with SecureShield Technology Protect Against Side-Channel Attacks, IP Theft and Data Breaches

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. , Sept. 12, 2016 – 

Synopsys, Inc. (Nasdaq:SNPS) today announced availability of the DesignWareARC SEM110 and SEM120D security processors for low-power, embedded applications such as smart metering, NFC payment and embedded SIMs. The new ARC SEM processors with Synopsys SecureShield technology enable designers to protect systems against software, hardware and side-channel attacks as well as separate secure and non-secure functions as part of a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE). The ultra-low power, performance-efficient ARC SEM processors offer advanced security features such as uniform instruction timing and power randomization to obfuscate secure operations. In addition, the SecureShield Runtime Library manages the partitioning and isolation of containers within a TEE to ensure data is stored and processed in a safe environment. This combination of hardware and software features enables designers to create more secure system-on-chips (SoCs) for IoT and mobile applications.

ARC SEM Security Processors

The DesignWare ARC SEM Processors are based on the scalable, 32-bit ARCv2 instruction set architecture (ISA) and are optimized for area and power efficiency. The ARC SEM110 Processor integrates a wide range of security technologies and can be implemented in an SoC as either a standalone secure core or as a single core performing both secure and non-secure functions. The ARC SEM120D adds DSP functionality for applications such as sensor processing and voice identification in health care and IoT devices. Key features of the new processors include:

"High-profile security breaches are increasingly in global headlines, underscoring the need to ensure the right precautions are being taken during SoC design and test," said Mats Nahlinder, president of Riscure North America. "As a global security test lab and a market leader in side-channel test equipment, our business is to evaluate security solutions for their ability to protect against such malicious attacks targeting hardware and software. The DesignWare ARC SEM processors enable designers to add protection to their embedded devices against such attacks."

ARC Software, Development Tools and Ecosystem

Synopsys' embARC Open Software Platform provides software developers with online access to a comprehensive suite of free and open-source software, including security transport protocols. The platform includes the new SecureShield Runtime Library, which runs in the background and manages the partitioning and isolation of containers within a TEE.

Like all ARC processors, the ARC SEM processors are supported by a robust ecosystem of software and hardware development tools, including:

In addition, support for Synopsys' HAPS physical prototyping system enables early software development, hardware/software integration and system validation of ARC SEM processor-based designs.

The ARC SEM processors with SecureShield are part of Synopsys' comprehensive portfolio of security IP solutions that include the Enhanced Security Package and CryptoPack options for ARC EM processors and the DesignWare Security IP solutions, which consist of a range of cryptography cores and software library, protocol accelerators, root of trust, platform security and content protection IP.

"As security threats become more prevalent in connected devices, having security built-in at the SoC level is critical to minimizing the risk of side-channel attacks, data breaches, IP theft and more," said John Koeter, vice president of marketing for IP and prototyping at Synopsys. "By expanding our portfolio of IP solutions with the new ARC SEM processors, Synopsys enables designers to integrate the necessary security features into their embedded devices, while meeting the stringent power and area requirements of their chips."

Availability and Resources

The DesignWare ARC SEM110 and SEM120D processors are scheduled for general availability in October 2016.
