The FortiMac library belongs to the FortiMac product family. This software library provides ultra-strong protection against SCA, FIA, and cache attacks.
This is the only pure SW solution in the market.The underlying protection is purely algorithmic and implementation-agnostic. Resistance to attacks was validated analytically and on a physical device. The protection is based on the Threshold Implementation (TI) approach, the security of which has been proven.

Advanced DPA- and FIA-Resistant FortiMac HMAC SHA2 IP Core
“Summary. The leakage analysis (Welch t-test) on over 30 million traces did not show statistically significant first- and second-order differences between trace sets with fixed and random inputs. The template-based DPA analysis, on the pseudo-random trace set for the profiling phase (15 million traces) and on a sub-set of 300k fix input traces for matching phase targeting the first-round S-box output, and template attack on ciphertext, did not indicate any potential information leakage.”
” The results for the soft IP presented in the report were obtained on the TOE which is the basic hardware implementation of the soft IP without additional levels of security (e.g. that are present in a secure silicon layout). Therefore the internal strength of the soft IP itself was evaluated. This indicates that the investigated features and parameters of the soft IP implementation should be robust against SCA and fault injection attacks in different implementations including ASIC. Nevertheless, according to the Common Criteria rules, the strength of the final composite product must be evaluated on its own.”
