The BCM58100 offers the highest level of security to protect sensitive consumer data from threats at the physical and network layer while simplifying system design, reducing footprint and lowering cost for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). BroadSAFE™ architecture offers tamper protection and encryption as well as secure storage and processing of both card information and biometric user data such as fingerprint, iris, facial templates and more to safeguard against attacks. The BCM58100 is compliant with Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) and also ensures that end products achieve stringent Payment Card Industry (PCI) and Europay, MasterCard, and Visa (EMV) certifications for an added layer of security.
"The rapid proliferation of smart devices connected to the Internet has led to serious concerns regarding the safety of consumer and business data," said
Additionally,
"We are seeing substantial adoption of NFC-capable devices and expect the global installed base of mPOS terminals to grow to well over 50 million units by 2018," said
The BCM58100 enables secure, high-performance and cost-effective designs for a broad set of embedded applications including low-power connected devices, home automation products, mPOS terminals, security systems and more.
