Communications processor supports security, encryption, and compression
By Maury Wright, Editorial Director -- EDN, July 16, 2007
Hifn has announced the 4450 FlowThrough security processor—the latest addition to a family of such processors. The 4450 targets systems that must compress data in real time, apply security protocols, handle encryption algorithms, or perform all of these tasks. The IC supports the IPsec (Internet Protocol Security) standard, and the company claims that the device handles functions that now typically require three separate ICs. The IC will find use in storage networks, fabrics, and other data-center applications; it sells for $80 (OEM volumes).
