We benefit each day from the advances in technology. However, our
growing dependence on technology has made us vulnerable to a wide range of
digital security threats. Security, safety, and privacy are ever-increasing
concerns for users of all types of technology. To protect against
unauthorized access, security professionals are creating security solutions
that employ algorithms for encrypting data storage and transmission as well
as pattern detection to guard against intrusion, virus attacks, and the
like. Security solutions are no longer a requirement to protect just the
most sensitive of government and business data. They are required for our
everyday use.
To keep up with the necessary volume and data rates, many security
solutions are implementing algorithms in hardware.
Cynthesizer's
high-level synthesis technology and design environment provide the
flexibility to implement this type of algorithm while eliminating manual
construction of required complex state machines and computational data
paths.
Cynthesizer users have successfully implemented security algorithms
including AES, DES, SHA, and MD5, encryption/decryption standards up to
wire-line speeds.
