Embedded Security Solutions for Mission Critical Infrastructure

We are embedded security experts. Our proven, easy-to-integrate and low maintenance solutions address government cybersecurity and anti-tamper requirements. Our products address the vulnerabilities in embedded systems, preventing cyber exploitation by allowing an adversary persistent arbitrary code execution and preventing intellectual property theft and exploitation of proprietary firmware and data.


What We Do

Our product lines deliver layered embedded security through Security IP building blocks (Immunity and Helios), integrated firmware and software security solutions (Keystone), and emerging secure hardware platforms (Bedrock) that protect sensitive systems from physical, side-channel, and advanced cyber threats.
