Disposable Authentication

Secure Authentication for Disposable Applications


Has your company adopted a business model to protect your disposable products from counterfeiting or copycat products? When you implement a security strategy, it is important that you identify the high-value targets in your system. While you might consider protecting the product within a cartridge, tubes, or cables and sensors, the host system may also be targeted for attacks. Depending on the threat model your company identifies, you can leverage our CryptoAuthentication™ ICs to implement several secure authentication architectures to defend your products from counterfeiting.

Authentication Types


Symmetric Authenication

Symmetric Authentication

Our flexible CryptoAuthentication ICs can protect the symmetric keys in your host system or in the disposable itself. The SHA105 can be used on the host while the SHA104 or SHA106 can be used to protect the symmetric key on the disposable when it is paired with the SHA105 on the host system. The ATSHA204 offers more slots, allowing you to implement more use cases on the host system and disposable.

Asymmetric Authentication

Asymmetric Authentication

Our cost-effective ECC204 or more-advanced ATECC608 devices enable you to implement Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) for asymmetric authentication with private/public key pairs and certificates. If you would like to eliminate the PCB in your disposable, consider using our three-pin and two-pin (ECC206) authentication ICs for Elliptical Curve Cryptographic (ECC). Depending on the threat model you are using, the public key can be stored in an immutable memory zone of the host system’s microcontroller (MCU) or in the ATECC608.

Other Capabilities


Adding Cloud Connectivity

When cloud connectivity and additional security use cases are required, consider using the ATECC608 for your host system or the TA100 for automotive applications. These secure authentication ICs will protect the private keys for Transport Layer Security (TLS) and Bluetooth® Low Energy (LE) sessions as well as the public keys for secure boot and secure firmware upgrades.
