Their pitch deck was about flashing keys into a root of trust at the fab, then using those as a way to do different types of decentralized or federated firmware integrity attestation. They had some quiet traction with some chip manufacturers and in defense and aerospace and at the time, they were the only ones I thought were really bringing something new to the space.
- XMPPwocky 5y agoI'm trying to read this charitably but can't. As far as I can tell, they're describing the concept of "fuse some keys into chips" (and/or "use a PUF"?) and "do secure boot". Where's the novelty? All I see is PR and bad, bad vibes. Is there a decent technical document available that actually describes their improvements over the SOTA? Without that, the impression I get is that somebody is trying to dazzle non-technical investors with bullshit.
