Mocana NanoUpdate™
Mocana delivers an easy to use, high performance Secure Firmware Update solution. Mocana NanoUpdate enables firmware images and other messages to be securely delivered to devices in the field automatically, therefore eliminating the need for insecure, user-intensive methods, like email, TFTP, FTP, HTTP, and CD/DVD.
For example, a command line tool (included with Mocana NanoUpdate) creates a PKCS #7 - digitally signed message. The signed message is placed at a well known URI, which is programmed to check for updates. The signed message is then downloaded, authenticated, verified, de-capsulated, saved and/or acted upon.
Mocana NanoUpdate can be used even with disruptions. In this example, the signed message download that is disrupted during retrieval, will cleanly resume without consequence.
NanoUpdate™ Overview
Firmware can be equated to an operating system located on hardware that controls its basic functions. Today, all hardware devices use firmware from expansion cards, USB adaptors, switches, routers, printers, optical and storage drives, digital cameras, mobile phones and more.
Where once firmware was read-only and limited to what the hardware could do, today most firmware can be updated giving hardware new features and capabilities. Mocana NanoUpdate can be used for wired or mobile applications, working in both local and roaming situations. Deployment of new firmware images and messages with Mocana NanoUpdate is simple and easy to manage.
