Keysight Technologies, Inc.KEYS has announced the completion of the industry's first PSA Certified Level 4 security evaluation, conducted on Silicon Labs' Series 3 Secure Vault integrated into the SixG301 wireless SoC. This marks a significant milestone in advancing the security assurance of connected devices amid rising cyber threats.
With the rapid expansion of the Internet of Things (IoT) across industries, the security landscape has become increasingly complex, as devices face highly sophisticated attacks using advanced tools and techniques. Certification programs such as PSA Certified provide critical benchmarks, enabling manufacturers to demonstrate that their devices can withstand these evolving threats. Level 4, the highest assurance level in the framework, focuses on testing the resilience of key security components such as Root of Trust (RoT) and secure elements (SE) that protect data, firmware and functionality throughout the device's lifecycle.
As an authorized PSA Certified Test Lab, Keysight conducted the Level 4 evaluation using its advanced security lab capabilities. The process included in-depth design reviews, vulnerability assessments and rigorous attack simulations such as Side-Channel Analysis and Fault Injection, ensuring the product’s ability to withstand the most advanced cyberattacks.
