Secure Boot in Embedded Systems: Potential Impact and Weakness

Status: Coming up in April 2025!

Original embedded device manufacturers must implement security measures, with a major focus on Secure Boot. Secure Boot establishes a Chain of Trust, where each boot component verifies the signature of the next component before loading it. According to GSPR guidelines, Secure Boot will be mandatory for electronic products by December 13, 2024.

In this talk, we will break down GSPR regulations into a clear, step-by-step guide for implementing Secure Boot throughout each component of the boot process. Attendees will gain practical insights into building a secure, compliant boot sequence for embedded devices.

Practical Approach for High-End Embedded System Design (2020)

Status: Available Now

Embedded system design is very challenging as it requires multi-disciplinary expertise in Hardware, Firmware and Software. Most of embedded systems developments ends up as a failed project or not delivering performance as planned initially.  

This can be address by proper planning and selection of suitable hardware and software components. Also design goals and parameters to consider a very important to be evaluated before starting project like:

  • Hardware Complexity
  • Software Complexity
  • Time to Market
  • Development Cost
  • Certifications
  • Functional Safety and Security
  • Feasible Solution

In this seminar, we will learn how to plan a complex Embedded System from hardware, firmware and software point of view. Furthermore, we will see how actually each part will be developed by utilizing Standard off the shelf components available. This makes design simple, cost effective, feature rich and most feasible for particular market.
