RX Family TSIP Security Solutions

In response to growing threats to IoT devices, RX 32-bit microcontrollers (MCUs) provide security solutions that will protect against threats throughout the lifecycle of IoT devices, from autonomous security and the design phase to end-of-life.

Features

Autonomous security for IoT endpoint devices is provided by Renesas' proprietary hardware security IP (Trusted Secure IP)

IoT devices that are located in a network environment are constantly exposed to a variety of threats. However, if the IoT endpoint device itself is secure, it can protect itself from threats and prevent malicious and unauthorized behavior, even in an unsafe network environment. RX has strong security technology using Renesas' proprietary Hardware Security IP and provides autonomous security for IoT endpoint devices.

RX Security Solutions

Hardware: RX Microcontroller with Hardware Security IP to Protect Against Threats

RX is equipped with Trusted Secure IP, which cannot be accessed externally. Key data and the cryptographic engine in Trusted Secure IP are strongly protected. Also, it combines area protection features and RX-specific features to protect authentication programs from tampering threats. With this, you can build a system with Root of Trust that provides self-sustaining security and provides easy and robust protection from a variety of threats.

Evaluation Kits: Trusted Secure IP Ready Evaluation Kits

Renesas offers evaluation kits that allow you to evaluate robust security immediately, contributing to reducing the turn-around time (TAT) for development of security-enabled devices. An NDA is not required for the manual and driver for Trusted Secure IP.

Achieving DLM with RX Security Solutions

There are various threats during the lifecycle of a user's product. You need not only security features for the device, but also secure operations throughout the lifecycle to respond to these threats. This way of thinking is called Device Lifecycle Management (DLM). RX security solutions support DLM and also make robust and advanced security management from the product lifecycle operation aspect possible.

Certification

General-Purpose MCUs that Comply with International Security Standards

RX microcontrollers with Trusted Secure IP are robust and reliable general purpose microcontrollers with NIST^*2 FIPS^*3 140-2 Level 3 CMVP certification applicable to HSM^*1 and IC cards. Also, each of the cryptographic algorithms in the Trusted Secure IP is CAVP certified, so they can be used with confidence.

*1. HSM: Hardware Security Module
*2. NIST: National Institute of Standards and Technology
*3. FIPS: Federal Information Processing Standards
