Abstract
A configurable hardware device comprises a configuration memory of a known total size, and a configurable fabric arranged for being configured according to information from the configuration memory and segmented in a static partition and at least one dynamic partition. A static partition is arranged for receiving a bit stream and a cryptographic nonce and comprises a read/write mechanism for interacting with the configuration memory. The received bit stream is stored in the configuration memory and used to configure an intended application in the dynamic partition. The static partition is arranged for computing, based on the cryptographic nonce, a checksum of the entire configuration memory and for outputting the checksum.
