Trustzone

ARM has launched the first of a series of Cortex-M series microcontrollers based on the V8M architecture that incorporate the Trustzone security mechanism.

ARM is bringing the Trustzone security architecture to future Cortex-M processor cores, combining that with a version of AHB that will recognise the difference between secure and non-secure transactions.

ARM CTO Mike Muller called for IP to be used throughout the IoT as part of a strategy for secure systems at a recent NMI seminar at Bletchley Park, England.

Inside Secure has developed a set of certification-ready hardware IP modules that can be used stand-alone or in conjunction with ARM's TrustZone
