What Is Secure Processing?
Mission-critical systems at the core of aerospace and defense applications are subject to the same security vulnerabilities as advanced systems in other industries. However, the consequences of a security breach are far worse. Security must be built in, not bolted on as an afterthought. Technologies such as FPGA-based cryptography, root of security, secure boot, sensors, fingerprinting and physical protections against system infiltration are just some of the ways to protect mission-critical systems.
CHALLENGE
Protect the system.
Protect the mission.
SOLUTION
Advanced cryptography, secure boot and physical protection technologies like our BuiltSECURE™ technology can mitigate reverse engineering, deliver cyber resiliency and safeguard confidential data and IP against adversarial threats even when a system has been compromised. Combine BuiltSECURE™ technologies with our systems security engineering services to provide the ultimate in security.
System Security Engineering (SSE) for
End-to-End Protection
Mercury’s experienced system security engineers and customer support teams deliver affordable, end-to-end product security services including vulnerability assessments, technical training, and product-specific protection schemes.
Our SSE services include:

A Comprehensive Security Portfolio
Our comprehensive physical security solutions, coupled with proven cybersecurity hardware technologies, offer world-class defense for high-value technology systems deployed in mission-critical applications.
Our security suite includes features such as basic access controls, write protection for NVM (or sanitization protocols) and protection for data, both at rest and at runtime. It also provides comprehensive key and crypto-engine management with built-in side channel attack (SCA) resistance, advanced sensing and fingerprinting capabilities, and industry-leading physical security. Together, these capabilities secure firmware management for updates and boot-time checks, and maintain system integrity.
