Regarding cybersecurity and test utility concepts

Hi,

      Can you please explain me the cybersecurity and test utility features of the kit nrf52832.

  • Hi,

    The nRF52832 has some cryptographic support, essentially what is needed for BLE security. That includes a RNG peripheral, and AES CCM peripheral. There is also a AES ECB peripheral. There are not many other security specific features of the nRF52832. You can see the product specification for details. When it comes to software, the nRF5 SDK has support for many crypto algorithms via the nrf_crypto library, which relies on various software implementations for common crypto algorithms. You also have nrf_security in the nRF Connect SDK if using that.

    If you need more hardware security features, such as a key management unit and/or separations of secure and non-secure regions, I suggest you look into the nRF5340 instead.

    If this does not answer the question, then please elaborate. Also please clarify the question about "test utility features".
