SLE 78 SOLID FLASH ™ family: Digital Security Controller
SLE 78CLXxxxP - Dual-Interface/ Contactless Security Controller
The SLE 78CLXxxxP dual-interface and contactless 16-BIT CONTROLLER FAMILY addresses high security chip card markets. The SLE 78 family continues the success of the Infineon contactless controller families currently deployed across all existing chip card markets worldwide. It offers an easy migration path whilst introducing a new additional security concept called “Integrity Guard” that will provide even longer lasting security against potential attacks.
Key Benefits
All features – and specifically the Integrity Guard – are designed with the following in mind:
- R&D efficiency for application development
- Short time to market for end customer products
- Robustness, quality and long product life spans
- Open architecture to accommodate future hardware extensions
Integrity Guard System
The new Integrity Guard concept offers long term device security, ensuring CC EAL5+ (high) certification for years to come. Rather than relying entirely on shields and sensors the Integrity Guard concentrates on core security to protect against tomorrow’s attacks:
- Dual CPU implementation for fault detection
- Full CPU, Memory, Bus and Cache encryption
- Error detection codes (EDC) in all memories
- Error codes for cache protection (Post Failure Detection, PFD)
- Address and data scrambling of memories
- Active I2-Shield
