Semiconductor
Elliptic has an excellent team of skilled ASIC developers. Wit experience from architecture right through to final device verification and characterization, the team has worked on sophisticated SoC design projects from start through volume production. It is not uncommon to see Elliptic developers attached to a specific project with a customer and working on customization to fit a specific architecture or to optimize performance against demanding reuqirements.
Software
An overall security design requires a cohesive blend of hardware and software skills to achieve the final system objectives. The hardware and software teams at Elliptic are a close knit team that share insights into what is best done in hardware and what functions can be implemented in software. And this trade-off very much depends on the target market that the end system will conform to. Many customers tap into this unique blend of capabilities and pull in Elliptic software team members to round out the final solution - on time and on budget.
Architecture
Elliptic has skills in high security designs such as point-of-sale terminals or meter reading applications. Here the goal is to conform to a high security standard but also to ensure that a hacker can't gain access to secret keys or intermediate values that might be embedded in a device. Elliptic also understands the patent domain in this space and can help navigate these land mines to achieve a successful and secure final product.
On the performance side, Elliptic has experience in very high performance security designs. Elliptic has delivered an XTS-AES solution which achieves over 18 Gbps of throughput for a SAN security application. Elliptic has also delivered a Gbps IPsec solution which was finely tuned to the SoC and memory architecture of the target device to offer best-in-breed performance - on both the throughput and cost aspects of the design.
The powerful skills are available to your company under a consulting arrangement.
Standards
Elliptic customers often retain Elliptic to watch a specific standard that may be very important to a product on the roadmap. Elliptic can also offer intervention service should a customer wish to help guide a security standard to an agreed closing position that might be more favorable to the commercial interests of the customer. With many years of standards experience, Elliptic can help conclude a standard to the benefit of your product positioning.
