KEY PROVISIONING SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PROGRAMMABLE LOGIC DEVICES

Systems and methods for provisioning secure programmable logic devices (PLDs) are disclosed. An example secure PLD provisioning system includes an external system comprising a processor and a memory and configured to be coupled to a secure PLD through a configuration input/output (I/O) of the secure PLD. The external system is configured to generate a locked PLD comprising the secure PLD based, at least in part, on a request from a secure PLD customer, wherein the request from the secure PLD customer comprises a customer public key; and to provide a secured unlock package for the locked secure PLD. The external system may also be configured to provide an authenticatable key manifest comprising a customer programming key token and a corresponding programming public key associated with the locked secure PLD, wherein the authenticatable key manifest is signed using a programming private key generated by the locked secure PLD.
