Helion Technology's AES-XTS solution offers state-of-the-art encryption for data-at-rest in storage systems, adept at mitigating threats such as copy-paste and dictionary attacks. AES-XTS operates by encrypting disk sector data with blocks of 16-bytes under a secret AES key, incorporating a modifier value corresponding to each block's logical disk location. This method ensures that identical plaintext sectors stored at different positions yield different encrypted outputs.
Designed to handle high performance requirements, Helion's AES-XTS cores enable custom levels of throughput scaling from 1Gbps up to over 64Gbps, suitable for diverse scenarios like servers and high-speed SSDs. The product range includes single, twin, quad, and giga variants, aligning closely with specific performance and logic resource parameters, optimizing both hardware usage and security efficacy.
This flexibility and adherence to the IEEE 1619 standard make Helion's AES-XTS cores valuable for any application demanding secure disk-level encryption. Available for either ASIC or FPGA platforms, these cores are constructed to leverage the unique capabilities of each technology, achieving the best possible performance across different use cases.
