Mocana NanoBoot provides all the tools and firmware source code you need to perform secure pre-boot verifications on your connected device. NanoBoot uses strong cryptography to validate the BIOS, firmware, and boot loader images. NanoBoot can run in memory-constrained environments (depending on cryptographic configuration), requiring less than 8 KB uncompressed firmware space and less than 2 KB of RAM.

Mocana NanoBoot is comprised of two components: a command line tool, which digitally signs the authorized firmware image, and a small signature verification application that executes during initialization from within a processor’s protected flash memory. The NanoBoot application may be a little as 8 KB, and require less than 2 KB of RAM, enabling SoC design. When the device is powered up, NanoBoot verifies the device’s signature, thereby ensuring that the device’s firmware has not been altered.

NanoBoot™ Benefits

Protects Intellectual Property

Prevent subversion (tampering) of firmware images.
Assign unique IDs, such as SKUs, to firmware images using cryptographic private keys.

High Performance

Ultra small code and runtime footprints.
Preboot verification for firmware.

Platform Independent
All Mocana products are CPU architecture and platform independent.

Endian neutral.
RTOS not required.
Platforms supported include Linux, Monta Vista Linux, VxWorks, OSE, Nucleus, Solaris, ThreadX, Windows, MacOS X, (ARC) MQX, pSOS, and Cygwin. Additional RTOS ports take approximately two job hours to complete.
ROM-able - Code can run in ROM, not just RAM.
Ultra small footprint enables SoC (system on chip) design.

Easy to Use

One simple API function to call at startup or periodically.
Ongoing Development, Maintenance and Support.
Full documentation, support, and training.
Upgrades, ongoing maintenance, and customized development and porting.

NanoBoot™ Architecture

Mocana’s NanoBoot is part of the Mocana Device Security Framework, designed to secure all aspects of any connected device. All components of the Device Security Framework are built on a common architecture and share a common API and code base. As a device designer, you can choose only the components you need for your particular project... or standardize company-wide on the DSF, future-proofing your investment with this broad, cross platform, flexible and extensible security architecture.
