Integration

Under the CryptoFirewall™ program, Cryptography Research can manage all aspects of the engineering process, including complete circuit design and integration with existing conditional access and hardware vendors.

The CryptoFirewall security core utilizes standard chip manufacturing processes. Our engineering team has worked closely with leading chip manufacturers to integrate the CryptoFirewall security core into transport chips used in set-top boxes, removable smart cards used by leading conditional access providers, and stand-alone ASICs.

Pay television operators typically coordinate with their conditional access vendor and Cryptography Research to determine whether a standard or custom CryptoFirewall security core is most appropriate for their system.
