em|aura-C

em|aura-C is a RAIN RFID crypto transponder IC compliant with ISO/IEC 18000-63 and EPC Generation-2 Version 2 (Gen2 V2). em|aura-C best-in-class AES-128 and Grain-128A Crypto Suites, providing security services for Tag authentication, mutual authentication, data exchange during authentication including key update and authenticated communication.

em|aura-C implements superior security features against man-in-the-middle, harvesting, and cloning attacks, therefore preventing the use of fake tags in secure applications. It also includes tamper detection capability for usage in high-security tags as well as a pseudo-random number generator (PRNG) meeting the highest US government security standards (NIST SP 800-22 compliant).

These security features enable the usage of em|aura-C based solutions in applications requiring a high level of security at a long range, such as road tolling, border crossing, and protection of high-value items.
