Abstract

In one aspect, an integrated circuit (IC) includes a secure router configured as a trust anchor, a non-volatile random access memory (RAM) direct memory access (DMA) channel coupled to the secure router, a first DMA coupled to the secure router and configured to receive data with a first classification and a second DMA coupled to the secure router and configured to receive data with a second classification. The IC also includes a secure boot/key controller coupled to the secure router and configured as a trust anchor to boot the IC securely and a processor coupled to the secure router and configured to encrypt data, to store protocols, to store instructions to detect malicious intrusions on the IC and to provide key management.
