WISeKey International Holding Ltd. announced the launch of its WISeTrustBoot solution, a platform-independent Secure Boot and Secure Firmware Update solution that can be used stand-alone or as part of WISeKey's security framework for IoT installations, WISeKeyIoT. WISeTrustBoot will be introduced during the 2019 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas (January 9 -12). WISeKey's WISeTrustBoot solution, unveiled at the 2019 CES in Las Vegas, is the first platform-independent Secure Boot and Secure Firmware Update solution that combines the strength of tamper resistant secure elements, crypto libraries and strong digital signatures, and is backed by WISeKey's 20-years of experience in secure chip design and digital identity management. By storing critical boot information in a tamper resistant chip, and cryptographically binding this chip to the device's main processor, the carefully designed boot loader of the main processor becomes a stronghold able to verify the authenticity of the firmware prior to starting up or when receiving firmware updates in the field. WISeTrustBoot can be deployed as a stand-alone solution - its powerful toolbox gives application developers the flexibility to tune it to their specific needs. Also, WISeTrustBoot can be integrated as a component of the WISeKeyIoT solution, an innovative end-to-end security solution designed to enable secure communications for IoT devices, by increasing the level of security and creating user/consumer trust.
