Rambus RT-640 ASIL-B Certification

SAN JOSE, Calif. – Mar. 9, 2022 – Rambus Inc. (NASDAQ: RMBS), a premier chip and silicon IP provider making data faster and safer, today announced that the Rambus Root of Trust RT-640 Embedded Hardware Security Module (HSM) has received Automotive Safety Integrity Level B (ASIL-B) certification per the ISO 26262 international standard. Certified ASIL-B compliance is a critical requirement for automotive manufacturers and their suppliers to ensure vehicle systems meet necessary safety levels. As Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) become increasingly ubiquitous, it is imperative that vehicle electronic systems and data be protected from cyberattack and system malfunction. By integrating the Rambus RT-640 Embedded HSM, automotive SoC makers are able to accelerate the process of achieving functional safety requirements with proven, certified security IP.

“Increasingly sophisticated automotive systems must be both functionally safe and resilient to cyberattack,” said Neeraj Paliwal, general manager of Security IP at Rambus. “With the Rambus RT-640 Embedded HSM, automotive manufacturers get the best of both worlds: robust cybersecurity anchored in hardware with the assurance of ASIL-B functional safety. We have already achieved multiple design wins for the RT-640 across the globe, and it has tremendous traction in the new centralized automotive architecture across ADAS and sensors such as cameras, lidar and radar.”

Rambus is the leading supplier of security IP with the industry’s broadest portfolio of solutions. With nearly 200 design wins in the past three years, Rambus has proven security IP solutions for every application from consumer IoT to mission-critical defense electronics. With certified solutions such as the RT-640 Embedded HSM, chip and device makers can implement state-of-the-art security, meet industry-specified requirements, and reduce time to market.

Ensuring Functional Safety with ISO 26262 ASIL-B

Specified under ISO 26262, ASIL-B is a risk classification defined for functional safety of road vehicles. ASIL levels are assigned by performing risk analysis of potential hazards by examining various risk parameters such as severity, exposure and controllability of the vehicle operating scenario. In addition to the RT-640 HSM ASIL-B certification, the Rambus hardware and software development organizations have demonstrated to have the qualification, knowledge, and expertise required for the automotive industry and therefore have been certified to operate in accordance with ISO 26262:2018 standard ASIL-B for development and support processes.

While developing ADAS, automotive electronics makers are building complex SoCs, replacing discrete secure processor elements with ISO 26262-certified synthesizable IP and software. The Rambus RT-640 is the first programmable automotive grade Hardware Root of Trust IP solution on the market to reach this certified status. Customers can integrate the RT-640 as-is and focus on their own automotive security application without affecting the RT-640 certificate.

Integrated into an automotive SoC, the ASIL B certified RT-640 silicon IP design provides powerful cryptographic functions, state-of-the-art safety mechanisms and anti-tamper technologies to protect critical automotive electronics and data. This robust cybersecurity solution has been certified by TÜV-SGS 26262 ASIL-B functional safety. The ASIL-B certificate guarantees that all safety mechanisms are implemented and verified correctly, meet and exceed the required safety integrity levels and are supported with the ISO 26262 required evidence.

The certified RT-640 Embedded HSM key features include:

  • Fully programmable, purpose-built security processor with hardware enforced security and privilege levels
  • High-performance cryptographic accelerators for RSA, ECC, AES, HMAC and SHA-2
  • NIST SP 800-90 compliant random bit generator
  • Hardware enforced security with state-of-the-art protection from side channel and tampering attacks
  • ASIL-B safety mechanisms in the HW and SW implementation

Rambus IPsec Packet Engine Secures 5G Networking at 10 Gbps

Highlights: 

  • Internet Protocol Security (IPsec) Packet Engine with integrated Data Plane Development Kit (DPDK) and companion key negotiation toolkit provides complete solution for securing 5G networking from 1 to 10 Gbps data rates
  • Easily integrates into SoCs for 5G base stations, core network, gateways and end points
  • Supports 3GPP, TLS, DTLS protocols, all relevant IPsec RFCs, and NIST-compliant algorithms

SAN JOSE, Calif. – Oct. 27, 2020 – Rambus Inc. (NASDAQ: RMBS), a premier silicon IP and chip provider making data faster and safer, today announced the availability of a high-performance IPsec Packet Engine with integrated DPDK and companion key negotiation toolkit capable of securing 5G network traffic at data rates from 1 to 10 Gbps. A complete IPsec solution, the packet engine can be easily integrated into SoCs for a broad range of 5G devices from base stations and cloud, to gateways and end devices. This new engine is optimized to support the required protocols up to 10 Gbps with the most efficient footprint.

5G offers ten times the throughput and one hundred times the capacity of 4G networks. This increased jump in performance is enabled through more powerful devices, software-defined networking and application virtualization. All of these create greater complexity and higher demands on network processors and CPUs with the impact of greater latency. Offloading cryptographic operations to a dedicated IPsec Packet Engine streamlines processing and enables network traffic to be moved securely at line rate. Along with IPsec, for base stations and gateways, the solution has configurations that allow simultaneous IPsec, 3GPP and TLS processing on the packet engine.

“A host of new real-time applications are possible with the speed and bandwidth of 5G networks,” said Neeraj Paliwal, vice president and general manager, Rambus Security. “By anchoring security in hardware with our new IPsec Packet Engine, data on 5G networks can flow at full speed and be safeguarded from attack.”

Benefits of the Rambus IPsec Packet Engines:

  • Secures 5G network traffic with IPsec protocol at data rates from 1 to 10 Gbps. For the core and cloud server, Rambus offers dedicated high-end solutions for MACsec and IPsec.
  • Provides complete solution with integrated DPDK and companion key negotiation tool kit.
  • Supports 3GPP, PDCP, TLS, SSL, DTLS, IPsec protocols, as well as a broad portfolio of NIST-compliant algorithms. As an option, the packet engine can be enhanced with country-specific security targeting SoCs for the global market, satisfying specific regional requirements.
  • Backed by renowned Rambus security expertise and support.
  • Easily integrates into SoCs designed for 5G base stations, cloud network devices, gateways and end point devices.

Availability
The Rambus IPsec Packet Engine is available today for licensing and integrating into SoC designs.
