BK Software Description
The Internet of Things is expanding rapidly and brings with it a growing threat model. Strong identities are essential for establishing and scaling robust security due to the increasing number of endpoints. BK is a secure root-key generation and management software solution to IoT security. It allows device manufacturers the ability to secure their products without having to add expensive, security-dedicated silicon. BK is a software application of SRAM UPF, making it the only hardware entropy source for IoT products. It does not require that silicon fabrication be loaded. It can be installed later on in the supply chain and retrofitted remotely to deployed devices. This enables a never-before-possible remote "brownfield" installment of a hardware root of trust and paves the way for scaling the IoT to billions of devices.
