US Patent 11768964 Security plugin for a system-on-a-chip platform

Systems and techniques for a System-on-a-Chip (SoC) security plugin are described herein. A component message may be received at an interconnect endpoint from an SoC component. The interconnect endpoint may pass the component message to a security component via a security interlink. The security component may secure the component message, using a cryptographic engine, to create a secured message. The secured message is delivered back to the interconnect endpoint via the security interlink and transmitted across the interconnect by the interconnect endpoint.
