In device security, the difference between “good enough” and proven can determine whether your business makes headlines for innovation—or for a breach. Trust can’t be assumed, and in embedded systems, there are no do-overs. That’s why we built—and battle-tested—����TV TrustCore SDK.��

For over 15 years, TrustCore SDK has been the security engine for billions of devices. We engineered it not just to tick a compliance box, but to let product teams deliver secure, innovative devices on real deadlines—without re-inventing the cryptography wheel or rolling the dice with opaque, retrofitted libraries.��

Now, we’re open-sourcing TrustCore SDK (AGPL v3) to put that foundation in every developer’s hands. No black box. No vendor waiting game. Just security you can audit, adapt, and trust—right now.

The problem has changed

Expectations for embedded and IoT security are through the roof. Regulations like CRA, RED, NIS2, and FDA cyber rules are tightening. Supply chain scrutiny is brutal. Users expect devices to be secure by default.��

Yet too many teams are still cobbling together outdated crypto libraries meant for web servers, not tiny chips. The results are predictable:��

• Bloated firmware, poor performance, and constant workarounds��

• No clear path to FIPS 140-3, post-quantum cryptography (PQC), or supply chain attestation��

• Can’t easily support secure boot or device attestation��

• Critical functions hidden in a black box—if you even get the source code��

• Security gaps that invite product recalls, compliance headaches, and loss of trust��

Worse, security failures in these environments can mean product recalls, regulatory penalties, or loss of customer trust.

Why ����TV TrustCore SDK exists

����TV TrustCore SDK wasn’t built in a vacuum. It’s the outcome of a decade in the trenches, partnering with leaders across medical, industrial, automotive, and critical infrastructure.��

With TrustCore SDK, you get:��

• Lifecycle trust:��Immutable device identity, attestation, and signed updates��

• Efficient footprint:��Runs on the real hardware you use—not just in someone’s lab

• FIPS-aligned and PQC-ready:��Compliance you can prove and quantum-resistant cryptography as the new standard��

• Hardware integration:��Native support for TPMs, secure elements, and modern MCUs

• Proven at scale: Billions of devices, zero-nonsense field validation��

Marc Rocas, Senior Security Architect at Xerox, puts it simply: “TrustCore SDK provides us with predictable certification milestones and removes vulnerabilities that we might otherwise have to contend with.”

Why open source—and why now

This isn’t just about code transparency (though that’s non-negotiable). It’s about matching how product teams actually work:��

• Transparency: Inspect every line. No hidden magic.��

• Flexibility:��Adapt to your hardware, compliance needs, and workflows instantly.��

• Speed: Evaluate and prototype—without waiting on a sales call or jumping through procurement hoops.��

• Real trust: Build on what’s already trusted in the field, not just in a test suite.��

“TrustCore SDK has allowed us to turn the complex functions of meeting and staying ahead of compliance standards into a seamless aspect of our operations,” said Rocas in a recent case study about Xerox’s utilization of TrustCore SDK.

What this means for builders

It’s not just about stronger security—it’s about giving your developers the confidence, clarity, and time to focus on building what comes next. Whether you’re manufacturing connected medical equipment, industrial control systems, or consumer IoT products, TrustCore SDK offers:��

• Production-proven foundation: This isn’t a “science project” open source. It’s code that’s already protecting some of the world’s most sensitive workflows.��

• Zero vendor lock-in: Audit, customize, and validate as you need—it’s your roadmap, not ours.��

• Commercial path: When you scale, ����TV is here for FIPS validations, PQC enablement, expert support, and enterprise licensing.��

The initial open-source release includes NanoSSH, with additional TrustCore SDK modules planned for release over the coming months.��

To quote Marc Rocas again: “Our devices are now equipped to handle the challenges of the modern digital landscape, thanks to TrustCore SDK.”

Trust you can prove

Security theater is dead. “Trust us” isn’t enough. By open-sourcing TrustCore SDK, we’re making security a design principle you can see—and prove—at every stage.��

Start building security, you can see

There are two types of device makers in 2025: those who rely on black-box security and hope for the best, and those who build with TrustCore SDK, where trust isn’t an assumption—it’s an auditable artifact.��
