Riscure announces the successful completion of the security evaluation project for Nordic Semiconductor. After assessing the functionality and robustness of the security of two microcontrollers (nRF5340 SoC and nRF9160 SiP), they have successfully passed the requirements of the PSA level 2 and SESIP level 2 certification programs.
PSA and SESIP Certified offer a comprehensive approach to security testing with their multi-level security robustness schemes. These certifications enable device makers to achieve the security required for their use case through increasing levels of security assurance, each requiring increasingly rigorous hardware and software evaluation. Riscure conducts such evaluations to test the device’s robustness against the requirements of these certification programs.
“We are proud to have supported Nordic Semiconductor in achieving their certification needs. PSA and SESIP Certified programs enable IoT device makers, software and hardware vendors to build trust in the security of a new generation of IoT products” – Pascal van Gimst, VP of Global Services Sales. “Achieving PSA and SESIP Certification makes our customer’s solutions more attractive for device makers who want to ensure the security of their IoT devices before they hit the market.”
“We want to ensure our customers base their IoT end products on silicon and software that has been independently verified to ensure a robust level of protection”, says Tiago Monte, Developer Marketing Manager with Nordic Semiconductor. “Therefore, we are delighted to work with Riscure and to have achieved this PSA and SESIP Level 2 certification for the low power, multiprotocol nRF5340 SoC and low power nRF9160 SiP for cellular IoT”.
