About this course

This class will explain the purpose and benefits of a platform root of trust and describe how Microchip supports this with the CEC1712 microcontroller and Soteria code. The CEC1712/Soteria solution ensures system firmware resiliency by establishing a “Chain of Trust” using immutable memory and signed code.  Verified code is protected, threats are detected, and damaged images are recovered. This training explores the fundamentals of how Soteria works on our CEC1712 and how it can benefit any system loading code images into a processor from a SPI flash.
