ABHED-1
A Hardware based Encryption Device.
Note: Due to an active Non-Disclosure Agreement, complete Technical Specifications and other information may not be provided here for now.
Description:
Abhed-1 is a dedicated secure hardware-based offline encryption device for transacting classified data over Public / Open Data networks.
The purpose of the device is to undertake folder and file level encryption with data files read from source USB media device and written to a different target USB media device.
The hardware-based device is to encrypt, decrypt and handle common Windows/ Linux file system over USB on either end.
Active Implementation:
After Chipspirit won the Prestigious iDEX challenge in March 2019, We are co-developing the Hardware security solutions with Indian Defence under the Make-In-India initiative by Ministry of Defence.
The Secure hardware will enable our armed forces to have offline security with their own systems in place. With this hardware implementation the Graded secure data handled with self driven algorithms will be faster, simple and secure.
