Overview
Until recently, providing data security at optical line rates was at best an
expensive undertaking, meaning that many products simply could not afford to
include this increasingly essential feature.
However, using careful design techniques perfected after many years of
experience in crafting the highest performance security solutions in silicon,
Helion can now offer very high rate data security engines which allow you
to secure your optical-rate data at extremely realistic costs.
Helion optical networking security solutions
Helion can provide off-the-shelf product proven security solutions capable of
handling the high throughput confidentiality and authentication requirements
for optical networking standards such as SONET/SDH for OC-192 line rates and above.
These solutions may be used to target either ASIC, or FPGA technology in which we offer
the fastest solutions available anywhere in the world.
This means that you can have the flexibility of using a programmable logic
based solution without compromising your data throughput performance.
For the very highest rate solutions, in the multi-gigabit range, we would
suggest you consider looking at either plain AES encryption (if you don't
require authentication) using our Giga AES core,
or more likely our AES-GCM core which offers both
encryption and authentication in a single algorithm. Both of these solutions
are capable of many tens of Gbps throughput, and have been successfully deployed
by our customers in real products out in the field.
