C-Trust works as an extension of the complete development toolchain IAR Embedded Workbench and enables developers to protect an existing or new application without having to master the deeper complexities of security.
The Security from Inception Suite integrates C-Trust with additional security development tools plus training to support companies transitioning into the security domain to achieve legislative requirements, such as California & Oregon consumer law, the ETSI TS 103 645 standard, and the IEC 62443 industrial IoT security standard.
The Renesas RA MCU family is based on Arm Cortex-M and delivers a combination of optimised performance, security, connectivity, peripheral IP, and easy-to-use Flexible Software Package (FSP) to address the next generation of embedded solutions.
The security development tool C-Trust now supports the RA6M3 group of MCUs in the RA Family. In addition, the support for Renesas RX MCUs is extended with support for RX72N, building on the previous coverage for Renesas RX65N. By using C-Trust, developers are able to improve the security of an application with robust protection against Intellectual Property (IP) theft, malware injection, counterfeiting and overproduction. Furthermore, by developing on the Renesas platforms with C-Trust, it is now possible to accelerate compliance with the new legislation.
“We have built a comprehensive partner ecosystem around RA MCUs, making it easy to develop IoT endpoint and edge devices for a number of application areas,” said Mohammed Dogar, Senior Director of Global Business Development at Renesas. “We are pleased to see our key partner IAR Systems further contributing to this by adding support for more Renesas MCUs in their security tools.”
“The growing number of security legislations globally drives a need for easing security implementation, both in existing and new designs,” explained Clive Watts, Director of Product Management, Embedded Security Solutions, IAR Systems. “To help our customers in meeting the increasing security requirements, we are constantly updating the device support in our security tools offering. By supporting both the RA and RX families, we deliver a security solution enabling developers to leverage their security investment across several architectures without the need for extensive redesign or rework.”
To help companies in building the right level of security for their needs, IAR Systems offers the Security from Inception Suite, which is a unique set of tools and services for implementing and customising security in embedded applications.
