K-Micro Topaz Computing Subsystem for SoCs Features SafeNet SafeXcel IP Packet Engine Technology
BALTIMORE, Maryland and SAN JOSE, Calif. – September 26, 2005 – K-Micro, a leader in advanced yet affordable ASICs, and SafeNet, Inc. (NASDAQ: SFNT), setting the standard for information security, today announced that K-Micro's innovative Topaz computing subsystem for SoCs features SafeNet®'s SafeXcel™ IP Packet Engine technology. The new Topaz subsystem will enable designers to bring applications requiring very high performance computing power – including PON ONU/OLT, set-top boxes, printers, routers, and storage devices – to market more easily and quickly.
"Security, increasingly, is an essential feature in a wide diversity of systems, such as PON, set-top boxes, storage, and printers", said Sunil Baliga, vice president of marketing and business development at K-Micro. "SafeNet's silicon-proven technology enabled us to easily add in security to Topaz for support of functions such as IPSEC, SSL, TLS, SRTP, DES, 3DES, AES, ARC4, MD5, and SHA-1. Moreover, their Open Core Protocol (OCP) interface made adding SafeXcel technology to Topaz straightforward and quick."
"The inclusion of our SafeXcel technology in Topaz is an important achievement in a long relationship we've had with K-Micro", said Henk Pruim, Vice President and General Manager for SafeNet's OEM/Networking Business Unit . "We believe Topaz provides many benefits to customers, including simplifying their engineering efforts and speeding up their products' time-to-market. We look forward to working with K-Micro to include security functions on future versions of Topaz."
