Data security is a primary concern across all markets, especially communications. A certified cryptographic module that provides off-the-shelf cryptographic functions and programmable interfaces is essential. The high level of integration, hardware, and software programmability, and the inclusion of iDirect Government certified IP makes the AMD Zynq™ UltraScale+™ MPSoC an ideal solution. This white paper describes a novel approach to enable a secure execution environment (SEE) on the Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC architecture for FIPS 140-3 certification.
