ALSE has engineered a cost-effective, robust Copy Protection IP aimed at safeguarding FPGA designs from unauthorized use and cloning. This IP leverages a fixed-secret authentication approach through a variable challenge-response mechanism, integrating external authentication components to deliver security. Designed to be compact and utilizing minimal resources, it provides a practical solution against copy threats without necessitating processor-intensive methods. Such comprehensive protection systems are essential for maintaining IP security in industrial applications.
