Reduce Cost of On-Chip Security by Over 50%

With 60% more effective bits of security and 60% more performance than RSA, you can dramatically reduce the number of gates required to achieve equivalent performance levels. This smaller implementation typically lowers accelerator chip costs by more than 50%. Given your volumes, this could impact your company’s bottom line and enable you to charge a premium for higher-performance throughput relative to RSA.
