AuthenTec rolls out New SafeZone Secure Platform Solution
AuthenTec has unveiled its new SafeZone secure platform solution for mobile and consumer systems on a chip (SoCs). With more and more devices offering network connectivity, it is imperative to protect these devices from both physical and logical attacks. The SafeZone Secure Platform solution allows chip makers and device makers to realize the benefits of hardware-based protection without incurring significant cost to adapt software applications to exploit advanced platform security.
SafeZone can be embedded in a SoC to safely protect the most important security assets stored within the device, including crypto keys for VPN and DRM security, biometric data and other sensitive cryptographic information. This highly modular solution enforces user identity verification and prevents device cloning, unauthorized rollbacks to previous OSs, and any alteration to applications. SafeZone leverages AuthenTec's expertise in mobile and networking security and cryptography, and is part of the Company's offering to ensure security and user identity from the client to the cloud.
The recent and dramatic growth in high-profile attacks on commercial and government systems is driving interest in products offering improved security. SafeZone Secure Platform offers a cost-effective modular design that allows chip and device vendors to easily adopt different levels of security across their product lines while providing an evolution path to future security upgrades. The SafeZone Secure Platform minimizes the cost and complexity of securing sensitive cryptographic keys and other stored assets, even if the device is subject to unauthorized access.
