Dover Microsystems’ mission is to protect the world’s processors against network-based attacks. Dover’s patented CoreGuard® security IP acts as a bodyguard to the host processor, monitoring every instruction executed to prevent the exploitation of software vulnerabilities.
Historically, companies have relied on layers of defensive software, however, all complex software—including cybersecurity software—has bugs and these bugs can be exploited by attackers to wreak havoc and cause significant damage.
CoreGuard IP is hardwired directly into the silicon, next to the host processor, providing a physical layer of protection and making it unassailable over the network. CoreGuard provides essential oversight to embedded systems, ensuring every instruction complies with a set of security, safety, and privacy rules. If an instruction violates a rule, CoreGuard stops it from executing in real time before any damage can be done.
