Secure Boot – Security from the start

Secure Boot in Embedded Systems Fundamentals, requirements, and implementation in secure embedded designs

Cyberattacks no longer target only traditional IT systems. Embedded systems are increasingly becoming a focus as well. A key protection mechanism is Secure Boot, which ensures that devices start only trusted and authenticated software.

In this whitepaper, you will learn how Secure Boot works, which technical and organizational requirements must be met, and why the latest TQ modules based on the i.MX 95 provide a particularly powerful platform for secure embedded systems.

What is Secure Boot?

Secure Boot is a security mechanism that ensures only authenticated and signed software is loaded when a system starts. Cryptographic signatures create a so-called chain of trust, extending from the boot ROM to the application and preventing manipulation.

Who is this whitepaper for?

This whitepaper is intended for embedded developers, system architects, and project managers who design or operate secure devices, as well as for companies looking to protect their products against tampering and unauthorized software.

How does TQ support the implementation of Secure Boot?

TQ supports you throughout the entire development process, from concept to series production:

  • Selection of suitable processor platforms and embedded modules
  • Integration of Secure Boot mechanisms into bootloader and BSP
  • Support with key management and PKI structures
  • Securing firmware, kernel, and file systems
  • Consulting on security architecture, updates, and lifecycle management
  • Support in series production and secure device provisioning
