The DesignWare Cryptography Software Library features the most widely used symmetric and asymmetric cryptography algorithms in a wide range of size and performance configuration options including hardware offload. By providing cryptography software that has been extensively tested and validated through the NIST CAVP, Synopsys enables designers to accelerate Cryptographic Module Validation Program (CMVP) and Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 140-2 certification for applications requiring high levels of security.
To earn validation, the DesignWare Cryptography Software Library passed a full suite of validation tests for secure functions including block ciphers (AES, DES), digital signatures (RSA and ECC based), secure hashing (SHA-1, 2 and 3) and random number generation. (Nasdaq: SNPS) today announced it has successfully validated the DesignWare ® Cryptography Software Library through the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Cryptographic Algorithm Validation Program (CAVP).
Secure functions that passed validation tests include block ciphers, digital signatures, secure hashing (SHA-3) and random number generators, reducing design risk for SoCs requiring high levels of security.DesignWare Cryptography Software Library includes a suite of widely used encryption and certificate processing functions required for embedded applications.
