WEBINAR: Securing Connected Home Devices Using OTP NVM IP

With the proliferation of connected home devices in the market, security has become a key concern. Media processors that enable multimedia, seamless connectivity, and customized entertainment on home devices need to balance performance and power needs without compromising security. A robust security engine is integral to such a system to ensure secure boot, video watermarking, and digital rights management (DRM) of premium content for TVs, set-top-boxes, streaming, and gaming applications. This is implemented with secure storage of encryption keys, configuration, and version control information.

In this webinar, attendees will learn:

• Why seamless security is important to consumers and content providers
• Synaptics’ use of Synopsys’ DesignWare® one-time programmable (OTP) non-volatile memory (NVM) IP to develop single-chip media processors with secure DRM for the connected home entertainment market
• Overview from Synopsys on the wide range of available DesignWare OTP NVM IP
