Altera 20 nm FPGAs and SoCs Meet NSA IAD SIG Document Guidelines
Bolstering its support for military and government applications, Altera has completed the NSA's Information Assurance Directorate (IAD) Secure Implementation Guidelines (SIG) process for 20 nm FPGAs and SoCs. This document provides unified government recommendations on the use of security settings in Altera FPGA and SoC products and how these products can be used most securely to mitigate security threats in system designs. The NSA IAD SIG describes design and data security features unique to Altera 20 nm FPGAs and SoCs and provides guidelines for security policies based on typical scenarios. NSA IAD SIG documents are now available from the NSA for Altera's 28 nm and 20 nm FPGAs and SoCs. Altera is also working with the NSA IAD on SIG documents for 14 nm FPGAs and SoCs.
