SCA/FI-Protected RSA Accelerator
FortifyIQ’s RSA Accelerator delivers high-performance modular exponentiation for RSA-based public key cryptography, while incorporating advanced protections against side-channel analysis (SCA) and fault injection (FI) attacks. Optimized for secure key generation, encryption, decryption, and digital signature operations, the core ensures robust cryptographic processing without compromising efficiency.
The design integrates lightweight yet highly effective physical attack countermeasures at the RTL level, making the accelerator suitable for both certification-driven applications and security-critical environments. Supporting variable key lengths up to 4096 bits, it provides scalability for a broad spectrum of use cases, from embedded systems to enterprise-grade secure communications.
Compliant with FIPS 140-3 and Common Criteria requirements across all levels, the FortifyIQ RSA Accelerator balances strong security with performance, offering a trusted foundation for secure boot, key management, and authentication in modern hardware platforms.

“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.”
