Abstract
An embedded security module includes a security processor, volatile and non-volatile memory, and an interface. The security processor includes transistors formed in one or more semiconductor layers of a semiconductor die, and implements one or more security-related functions on data and/or code accessed by the security processor. The volatile memory is fabricated on the same semiconductor die as the security processor and stores the data and/or code accessed by the security processor. The non-volatile memory includes non-volatile storage cells disposed above each semiconductor layer of the semiconductor die, and securely stores at least one of the data and/or code accessed by the security processor and security information relating to the data and/or code accessed by the security processor. The interface is fabricated on the same semiconductor die as the security processor and provides a communication interface for the security processor.
