Remarkable Versatility

SHIELD96 demonstrates a modern approach to board security.

Cutting-Edge Security Solutions

Shield96 is the industry’s trusted Linux-based single-board computer.

A Proactive Approach to Security By Design

The MPU can encrypt and decrypt memory on the fly, which prevents sensitive data from being present on externally accessible data busses

The mezzanine connector allows for connection to other mezzanine add-on boards, such as cellular network connectors, environmental sensors, and FPGA expanders as well as Mikroelektronika Click Boards

Multiple connection methods including USB, RJ45, serial console, and GPIO Mezzanine connector

Allows engineers to focus on the application, not the underlying implementation of security

Tamper pins not only help protect the design, they’re also used to identify attempted hardware attacks

A Smart Investment for Forward-Thinking Management

SHIELD96 PLACES HEAVY FOCUS ON SECURITY TO NOT ONLY ENSURE PRODUCT INTEGRITY BUT ALSO PROTECT YOUR IP AND LOWER RISK RELaTED TO BREACHES.

The ability to work with multiple commercial cloud platforms allows for the most economic solution to be selected

Embedded security is critical to enabling a secure digital transformation. Building trusted devices presents a multi-faceted problem spanning secure design, manufacturing and lifecycle management

A World of Opportunity Awaits

IoT Banking: Personal data — including debit numbers and login details — can be safely stored on the Shield96, thereby allowing for safe transactions in IoT applications. Members of the SAMA5D2 series are preapproved for PCI5.x payment solutions

Home Automation: The use of the Shield96 reference design along with its cutting-edge security features can ensure the creation of a highly secure building automation system

Industry 4.0: The Shield96 is ideal for dealing with sensitive data (control signals, sensory readings, etc.) thanks to its root-of-trust design and ability to connect to a wide range of cloud platforms

Medical: Shield96’s heavy emphasis on privacy and focus on protecting data in transit and at rest make it ideal for applications involving medical sensory data, which may be sensitive in nature — even when decommissioned, any stored data is non-retrievable

Critical Infrastructure: For remotely deployed products like energy meters (water, heat, electricity), power plants, signalling, and more, physical protection is important and the ability to safely and securely manage remotely can reduce overall truck roll costs

Tamper pins on the SAMA5D2 can detect if a hardware attack was attempted — this data can be used to perform tamper-detection routines and respond as necessary

Secure Boot ensures integrity of the boot sequence from initial boot to Linux kernel

Shield96 has a wide range of applications, including IoT, cloud computing, edge computing, and gateway-based solutions

Works with the EmSPARK Security Suite for developing highly secure IoT products and solutions

Inclusion of security features during prototyping stage reduces development time when creating the end product

Removes the need for additional hardware ICs and ASICs

Shield96’s baked-in security follows current market trends and allows for secure updates to help future proof your design

The Shield96 is built to protect data, key certificates, software, IP, and more, throughout the entire life cycle of the product, from commissioning to decommissioning
