msystems(TM) and Trusted Logic to Integrate mSafe Cores in Trusted Logic Security Middleware for ARM TrustZone(R) Architecture

  
    
  
  
    
      msystems (NASDAQ:FLSH), a leader in smart personal storage and security 
      IP, and Trusted Logic, the premier company in secure open technology 
      middleware for embedded systems, today announced that they are 
      cooperating on developing support for msystems' mSafe crypto cores 
      within software products integrating Trusted Logic Security Module 
      technology, such as ARM TrustZone® 
      Software.
    
    
      Under the agreed cooperation, special software libraries will be 
      developed to support the entire family of msystems’ 
      mSafe crypto cores within the Security Module architecture. 
      Customers who need to add hardware cryptographic capabilities to their Security 
      Module based solutions will be able to quickly and easily 
      integrate off-the-shelf mSafe cores within any environment 
      incorporating the Security Module technology, including ARM 
      TrustZone Software.
    
    
      “We are very excited to be able to offer 
      customers the ability to integrate msystems’ 
      mSafe cryptography cores as a premier add-on solution to the leading 
      mobile security architecture,” said Rami 
      Koren, vice president marketing of security for the msystems Mobile 
      Network Operators division. “By combining our 
      partners’ products leading capabilities of 
      domain separation and mSafe state-of-the-art cryptography cores, 
      customers will be able to enjoy a complete security and cryptography 
      solution.”
    
    
      “We are very pleased to enable users of our 
      Trusted Logic Security Module technology to integrate 
      state-of-the-art mSafe crypto cores from msystems,” 
      said Dominique Bolignano, CEO of Trusted Logic. “Many 
      companies using our technology in association with domain separation 
      hardware such as ARM TrustZone are seeking to take advantage of it to 
      add key features to their silicon, such as cryptography capabilities. 
      mSafe cores offer them exactly that; our development will enable these 
      customers to smoothly add industry-standard cryptographic capabilities 
      to their silicon designs, minimizing technical risks and optimizing 
      time-to-market. Furthermore, this integration shows how expandable our 
      Security Module can be.”
