Adoption of Trustonic Security Platforms passes 1 billion device milestone
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Trustonic celebrates landmark milestone four years after launch, reaching 1
billion devices and protecting more than 500 million applications worldwide
CAMBRIDGE, UNITED KINGDOM--(Marketwired - February 23, 2017) - Device and
application security specialist, Trustonic has announced that, in the four-year
period since the company launched, its Trusted Execution Environment (TEE)
hardware security technology has now been embedded into more than one billion
devices globally. This includes smartphones from most of the leading Android
device makers worldwide, as well as wearables and other industrial and consumer
internet of things (IoT) devices. This news reaffirms that the Trustonic TEE is
the most widely-deployed TEE technology globally.
Trustonic TEE technology delivers security services to devices and applications,
ensuring sensitive data is stored, processed and protected in an isolated,
trusted environment within the main processor of a smartphone or any connected
device. This offers security against software attacks by enforcing protection,
confidentiality, integrity and data access rights. The Root of Trust also
ensures that a trusted identity is preserved within the device, preventing
fraudulent use or copying. Compared with other security environments on the
device, the TEE also offers high processing speeds and a large amount of
accessible memory.
Commenting on the milestone, Ben Cade, Founder and CEO of Trustonic, said: "In
just four years, Trustonic has made the security benefits of the TEE available
to the global mass market. Reaching this one billion TEE landmark is
significant, not just for Trustonic, but for device manufacturers, providers of
digital services and consumers everywhere. TEE technology, which offers the
highest levels of on-device protection for digital applications and assets,
without compromising performance or convenience for the end user, has now
reached critical scale. We only anticipate demand for TEEs to continue growing,
particularly following Google's mandate for hardware-based protection for
Android M onwards, to counter the continued rise in malware and hacking."
Trustonic's TEE is the only open TEE available. Uniquely, it permits third-party
applications to be provisioned after the handset or device has been deployed,
which opens up vast commercial opportunities for both device manufacturers and
digital service providers. The latter will have the potential to dynamically add
value to the end user by offering new secure services and functionality, once
the device is already in their hands.
Attending Mobile World Congress? Trustonic will be demonstrating its latest
technology in hall 6, stand 6I40. Come and meet the team to discuss connected
device and advanced application security, hardware Root of Trust, how TEE meets
Google's mandate for hardware-based security and the use of TEE technology to
both protect mobile financial services, IoT, social media, premium content and
enterprise and governmental implementations and provide advanced capabilities
into the future.
