Security features:

Since the very beginning, security is an integrated part of Infineons product development, as proved by

various certificates (ITSEC, CC, Proton, VISA, ZKA, Mondex). The so called “integral security concept” for

the 66P series ensures:

Analysis (DPA),

possible HW or SW attacks

Peripherals: The CRC module allows the easy generation of checksums according to ISO/IEC 3309 (16-Bit-

CRC). To minimize the overall power consumption, the chip card controller IC offers a sleep mode. The

UART supports the half-duplex transmission protocols T=0 and T=1 according to ISO/IEC 7816-3. All

relevant transmission parameters can be adjusted by software, as e.g. the clock division factor, direct/inverse

convention and the number of stop bits. Additionally, the I/O port can be driven by communication routines

realized in software.

The Advanced Crypto Engine (ACE) is equipped with its own RAM of 700 bytes and supports all of today

known public-key algorithms based on large integer modular arithmetic. It allows fast and efficient calculation

either in HW or supported by software of e.g. RSA operations and EC (Elliptic Curves) algorithms for key

lengths up to 2048-bit.

For all of it’s crypto controller using the ACE, Infineon offers a tailor made RSA 2048-bit library. This library is

a powerful multifunctional crypto library for the SLE 66CXxxP family. It provides arithmetic functions for easy

programming the Advanced Crypto Engine (ACE). In addition it provides a full implementation of RSA Sign,

Verify and Key generation including powerful SPA/DPA and DFA counter measures. It supports RSA up to

2048 bit key length. These RSA functionality has already been certified according to Common Criteria

EAL5+ on an existing crypto controller, the SLE66CX322P.

The HW-DES module supports symmetric crypto algorithms according to the Data Encryption Standard in

the Electronic Code Book Mode.

The random number generator (RNG) is able to supply the CPU with true random numbers on all conditions.

The advanced sensor concept includes various sensors for any kind of attack scenarios and even more

important a “Life Test ” for sensors.

As an important feature, the chip provides an on-chip security, which fulfills the strong security requirements

of a Common Criteria evaluation at an EAL5+ level.

In conclusion, the SLE 66CX1360PE fulfills all requirements of today's chip card applications, and is

especially designed for High End GSM and identification applications. In addition it offers a powerful platform

for multi application cards based on Multos, Java or WinSC and supports the migration to enhanced GSM

(incl. WAP), GPRS and UMTS value added services.

The SLE66CX1360PE integrates outstanding memory sizes, additional peripherals in combination with

enhanced performance and optimized power consumption on a minimized die size.
