The Security Upgrade Kit goes far beyond the capabilities of a normal microSD card. With a special flash controller and extended Swissbit firmware, the card offers security functions such as configurable access controls and data protection at partition level. This makes the card ideal for applications with frequent read access and long data retention. The kit supports Linux-based embedded systems as well as other operating systems and enables versatile protection of company-relevant data via real-time encryption (AES 256). Areas of application include the copy protection of sensitive data or the protection of system integrity through secure boot. This makes the Security Upgrade Kit an effective and cost-conscious security solution.
