"The VIA PadLock Security Engine includes technology for the processing of militarygrade
asymmetric encryption algorithms. Using a Montgomery Multiplier, VIA PadLock
accelerates all forms of public key encryption including RSA algorithms.
This accelerator allows VIA PadLock enabled applications to perform up to 900 RSA
signings per second. The closest competitor for this feature is the Trusted Platform
Module (TPM), which allows only up to 16 RSA signings per second.
However, the Trusted Platform Module’s RSA function differs slightly from the VIA
PadLock Montgomery Multiplier in that the TPM computes all parts of the RSA
algorithm whereas the VIA PadLock accelerates in hardware the algorithm’s ability to
perform the computations.
Figure 9 illustrates a throughput comparison of RSA signing through the Chinese
Remainder Theorem of the STMicroelectronics Trusted Platform Module and the VIA
PadLock Security Engine."
