Security Protocol Engines
The growing popularity of devices such as smartphones, femtocell access points, and secure home gateways has generated a market demand for integrated, converged secure platform and packet engine solutions. It is becoming increasingly common of these devices to combine secure network access capabilities with sensitive data processing tasks.

Packet engines offer hardware support for network security. The main tasks of a packet engine are acceleration and CPU offload - especially mobile operating systems are optimized for footprint, not for packet handling efficiency. Packet engine architectures range from the traditional look aside engines to the more sophisticated, powerful inline packet engines.

AuthenTec’s SafeXcel IP Packet Engines offer acceleration of IPsec, MACsec, SSL/TLS/DTLS, sRTP and basic hash-crypto operations at target speeds ranging from 100Mbps to 10Gbps and beyond.
