MACsec, IPsec and TLS Security Protocol Engine IP

For data in motion protection, Rambus offers a family of secure protocol-aware high-throughput data plane processing engines for MACsec, IPsec and TLS. Solutions cover layer 2 MACsec link encryption, layer 3 IPsec processing or layer 4 TLS packet processing. Like the silicon IP versions, full functional software stack toolkits are offered. These toolkits provide software data plane and control plane implementations that can be deployed on any general-purpose processing hardware. The solutions can be combined for a silicon IP data plane and software control plane implementation.

IPsec and TLS Engine IP

Rambus IPsec and TLS security engines deliver the benefits of throughput acceleration in combination with significant CPU offload by performing complete protocol transformations. These multi-protocol engines offer acceleration of IPsec, SSL/TLS/DTLS, MACsec and basic hash and crypto operations at speeds from 100 Mbps up to 800 Gbps in architectures ranging from the traditional Look-Aside engines attached to an AMBA bus system, to more sophisticated and powerful inline packet engines and inline transform engines.

The multi-protocol engines support all common symmetric FIPS-compliant algorithms, the ChaCha20/Poly1305 algorithm, 3GPP algorithms, Chinese algorithms, and various additional optional algorithms for specific applications. The IP integrates with various open-source data planes, such as DPDK and ODP as well as directly with the Linux Crypto APIs.

Securing Automotive Ethernet with MACsec Silicon IP

Securing Automotive Ethernet with MACsec Silicon IP
In today’s cars, the Ethernet standard is the go-to solution for connecting zonal gateways to the central compute units that handle ADAS functionality. However, in-vehicle networks are vulnerable to a number of security threats, including eavesdropping, denial-of-service attacks, man-in-the middle attacks, and unauthorized access. This white paper explores how MACsec provides an effective solution to address the security challenges faced by automotive Ethernet networks and how Rambus MACsec IP solutions can be deployed across a range of use cases.
