7. SoC Security
The Intel® Arria® 10 SoC provides the framework for implementing secure systems by offering a layered hardware and software solution. A dedicated Security Manager module in the Hard Processor System (HPS) supervises secure initialization of the SoC and manages system response during tamper events. User fuses offer secure boot options and registers within the Security Manager provide further enhancement of secure states. Using Elliptical Curve Digital Signal Algorithm (ECDSA256) with Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA256) and Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithms in the FPGA's Configuration Subsystem (CSS), boot images can be authenticated and decrypted. The integration of the Arm* TrustZone* technology and security firewalls within the Intel® Arria® 10 system interconnect provides defined partitioning in the device for secure and non-secure accesses. Protection mechanisms are integrated into debug components of the SoC to allow varying levels of visibility for debug.
