Achieve unbrickable remote firmware updates on highly secure STM32 MCUs

 The development of embedded software for connected devices usually follows traditional, linear “waterfall” approaches, and cannot adopt modern “agile” methods. This is due to the belief that hardware and firmware are interdependent, and that manufacturing is the final stage of the production process.

While over-the-air firmware updates are possible, they are mostly used to fix bugs or patch security holes, not to improve an existing product over time. This causes long release cycles for product innovation and costly troubleshooting. It’s time for a new approach.

ST and KORE bring three key ingredients to overcome this challenge, thanks to a new IoT architecture called microvisor:

• Unbrickable over-the-air firmware updates,
• A reference security implementation built on top of the must-have feature of secure boot,
• Secure remote debugging, which allows you to log into a device and inspect/debug the code as it gets executed in the field

Join the experts behind this innovation as they walk you through the microvisor architecture and its key capabilities. Learn about the first large-scale implementation with KORE Microvisor, on the STM32U585 MCU.
