- editor's comments:- among other things Atmel makes
CryptoMemory
which provides plug-and-play host-side cryptographic security for embedded
systems. This plug-and-play convenience means that designers do not have to
design or test the cryptographic algorithms. The companion chip implements the
necessary algorithms and the entire protocol completely in hardware.
