The Technology

Our patented Power Fingerprinting (PFP) technology is based on taking fine-grained measurement of a processor’s power consumption and performing anomaly detection using base references from trusted software.  PFP allows an external device to monitor the internal execution status of a processor and identify any deviations from the authorized execution.

 This technology has been in development since 2006.

Advantages

  • Extremely difficult to evade
  • Negligible performance impact
  • Stealth operation
  • Works on embedded and legacy platforms
  • Effective against zero-day attacks
  • Physical separation protects the monitor against attacks to itself
