KEYS Launches Security Testing Solution for Chips and Embedded Devices

Zacks
10 Apr

Keysight Technologies Inc. KEYS recently introduced the Next-Generation Embedded Security Testbench, a solution engineered to address growing security challenges of modern chips and embedded devices. Built on a modular framework, the solution uses high-speed PXIe architecture, which enables faster and precise security testing. The solution’s versatility and compatibility allow enterprises to use it with their existing test services. It boasts a user-friendly interface comprising smart algorithms developed on Keysight’s deep expertise.

The core elements of the testbench are M9046A PXIe Chassis, the M9038A PXIe High-Performance Embedded Controller, and Inspector Software. The capability of the testbench can be extended by incorporating oscilloscopes and extra electromagnetic components to support various complicated test situations.

Enterprises across industries are increasingly incorporating IoT devices to accelerate digital transformation initiatives across their operations. However, this growing proliferation of connected devices combined with growing instances of sophisticated cyber attacks has raised security challenges for manufacturers. Legacy testing set up with multiple, disparate instruments is failing to keep up with such rapid changes. Keysight’s new cutting-edge test bench efficiently addresses these modern testing requirements.

The solution is a significant advancement in Keysight’s Device Vulnerability Analysis product line, delivering 10 times more effectiveness in detecting and nullifying hardware-based weaknesses. The solution combines major components such as amplifiers, trigger generators, interfacing equipment and more into a single PXIe chassis. This enhances communication between modules and eliminates the issues with traditional testing setups, such as extensive cabling and the use of several instruments. Integration of all the instruments into a consolidated system speeds up and streamlines the testing process, and augments reliability and repeatability of security assessments.





Will This Product Launch Drive Keysight’s Share Performance?

Owing to ever-evolving cyber threats, chips and embedded device manufacturers are witnessing stringent security requirements. Amid this backdrop, enterprises are seeking for fast, accurate, scalable testing solution. Per Grand View Research, the global embedded security market is projected to grow at a 7.6% CAGR from 2024 to 2030. Keysight’s cutting-edge test bench with its modular, scalable design and greater compatibility is well positioned to gain from this market trend.
