Silex Insight’s advanced eSecure IP module, including security boot, sensitive key material and asset protection, is a complete solution that enables security applications to shield confidential information from untrusted applications running on a main processor. In the previous partnership, Andes Technology provided a high-efficiency and low-power RISC-V CPU core tightly integrated in the eSecure IP module to fully and robustly control the execution of security functions. The eSecure module is highly configurable and thus provides a wide-range selection of security features, which can be adapted for any application for performance, area and energy consumption. Andes RISC-V processors together with eSecure have been used in a wide variety of SoCs ranging from microcontrollers to data center servers, and for different purposes such as communication, and video applications.
