SEGGER Flasher Secure with TELP secures programming end to end
Summary
Flasher Secure, SEGGER’s flash programmer for authenticated off-site production, protects the firmware image at all stages of the provisioning process between IP owner and contract manufacturer. TELP secures the link from programmer to target and ensures that captured signal traces cannot be used to clone devices by simply replaying the programming sequence: every device is programmed using mutually-agreed, unique session keys for the encrypted link, and without those keys the captured trace is useless. The contract manufacturer never has access to the cleartext of a firmware image and both gain the peace of mind of ensuring the protection of IP from copying, cloning, and unauthorised production. The Flasher Secure/TELP solution offers complete transparency with IP owners able to seamlessly track the programming yield, device-specific data, programmer details, and much more. This unparalleled transparency is particularly crucial when outsourcing production to third-party locations, providing a level of confidentiality unmatched in the market.
