External projects using CrypTech technology.
This page explains how to upgrade the Cryptech Alpha firmware, bootloader, and FPGA bitstream (as needed).
All of the operations here use the Alpha's "management" (MGMT) port, so that cable must be connected to your Linux or OSX host machine.
The …
The aim of the Cryptech project is to develop an open, free, and auditable HSM. The Cryptech HSM includes both SW and HW parts. In at least the first iteration of the Cryptech HSM, the HW parts are implemented using FPGA devices. However, the ability to implement the HW …
We do not have any assurance that our basic tools are not compromised.
At the base, is the compiler. The fear was first formally expressed in Ken Thompson's 1984 Turing Award Lecture Reflections on Trusting Trust.
