COMPREHENSIVE SECURITY FOR THE INTELLIGENT EDGE
In today’s environment, a growing number of devices remain connected to the cloud, often continuously, to support updates, monitoring, and advanced services, while cyberattack techniques continue to grow increasingly sophisticated. As a result, robust measures to prevent device tampering and help ensure device authenticity have become more critical than ever. Compliance with frameworks such as the EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA), as well as IEC 62443 and NIST standards, is now mandatory for manufacturers seeking to meet global security expectations.
At the same time, developers face significant challenges, including the need to modify hardware or master complex technologies, in order to meet these requirements.
SecEdge’s SEC TPM™ solution addresses these challenges by implementing security TPM 2.0–compliant security, as defined by the Trusted Computing Group (TCG), at the firmware level on major Arm based platforms, including NXP’s i.MX series, STMicroelectronics’ STM32MP series, and NVIDIA’s Jetson Orin.
Through this agreement, SecEdge and Ubiquitous AI will provide stronger support for the IoT and edge security needs of Japan’s manufacturing industry. Furthermore, by advancing collaboration toward integrating both companies’ solutions, they will deliver a unified security environment that makes TPM easier to use and more seamlessly deployable.
