TrustZone Support for Systems Development

Nathan Dautenhahn

I am interested in doing some research with TrustZone enabled platforms. Specifically developing systems software for TrustZone, but I have been stymied in my efforts to identify whether particular platforms/development kits support the access I need.

Therefore, my first set of questions relate to ascertaining whether any of the TI development kits (e.g., TI-Sitara (AM335x), TI-Keystone(?), TI-MShield, or maybe one I’m unaware of?) have the level of access I need to TrustZone related fabric (e.g., developing a custom secure-monitor and secure world kernel). I have read that in most instances the TZ fabric exists but is only available to the developer if there is a signed NDA between TI and the developer.

If there are boards available I’d like to discuss purchasing as well as any of the legal (NDA) issues related to obtaining and using such a system.

Thanks,

Nathan,

Thanks for your interest. Please contact TI local sales representative or one of our authorized distributors and they will be able to discuss your application and what would be the best platform/board according to your needs, including NDA if needed.

Hi Rogerio-

Thanks for the fast response!

I have contacted my local representative, and they requested that I post on the forums to find out exactly which board would satisfy my requirements (to be able to create the secure monitor myself and control the trusted execution zone).

It has been a trying thing to find the right channel to get the technical questions answered.

Best,
