WASHINGTON, June 29, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- NSA Information
Assurance Symposium (IAS) 2015 -- Altera Corporation
(NASDAQ: ALTR) today announced that network security pioneer
Secturion Systems, Inc., has chosen Arria® 10 FPGAs for
its DarkStor™ secure network storage appliance product lines.
Secturion Systems and Altera are showcasing the appliance at the
NSA IAS 2015 from June 29 to July 1
at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center in Washington, D.C. (Secturion booth #524).
The DarkStor secure network storage appliance is capable of
meeting the rigorous requirements for storing, retrieving and
communicating secure data in high-bandwidth network and storage
applications and is implemented using Altera's family of
high-performance 20 nm Arria 10 FPGAs. It features storage network
packet processors, key handling and XTS-AES-256 encryption rates of
40-Gbps and 100-Gbps "full duplex" using unique patent-pending,
systolic matrix architectures suitable for big data storage and IP
network applications. In addition, the appliance features
multi-tenancy and multiple independent levels of security features
that eliminate the need for separate storage areas for each
customer or each data type, improving security and saving on
infrastructure costs.
"With Altera's Arria 10 FPGA architecture, we have pushed big
data network storage security to the next level of protection,
performance, and flexibility," said Richard Takahashi, Secturion Systems CEO
and Founder. "We will migrate these capabilities to Stratix 10
FPGAs to take advantage of high-performance HyperFlex architecture
routing and the new innovative security architecture to enable even
more secure encryption at 400 Gbps and higher."
"Secturion Systems is using Arria 10 FPGAs to achieve not only
rapid prototypes, but also production-quality systems," said
Ian Land, senior manager,
Military, Aerospace and Government business unit at Altera.
"Altera's state-of-the-art silicon and superior software tools, IP
cores and libraries, combined with a close partnership and support,
allowed Secturion Systems to take this innovative solution to
market quickly."
NSA IAD SIG Documentation Update
Altera recently announced completion of the NSA's Information
Assurance Directorate (IAD) Secure Implementation Guidelines (SIG)
document for 28 nm FPGAs and SoCs, which provides unified
government recommendations on the use of security settings in
Altera FPGA and SoC products and how these products can be used
most securely to mitigate security threats in system designs. The
NSA IAD SIG describes design and data security features unique
to Altera 28 nm FPGAs and SoCs and provides guidelines for security
policies based on typical scenarios. Altera is also working with
the NSA IAD on SIG documents for 20 nm and 14 nm FPGAs and
SoCs.
