5 ELEMENTS TO A SECURE EMBEDDED SYSTEM – PART #5 SECURE STORAGE

In “5 Elements to a Secure Embedded System – Part 4 Secure Bootloaders,” we continued to discuss the five elements of a secure embedded system. So far, we have seen that these five elements include:

C++ PROJECT SETUP USING STM32 MICROCONTROLLERS

C++ has been slowly gaining momentum within the embedded systems space. You’re probably well aware that many microcontroller vendors provide C libraries and interfaces to speed up development, with fewer companies . . .

Embedded Design Books

Embedded Software Design

This book will teach you how to design higher-quality embedded software from concept through production. Embedded systems are typically designed using microcontrollers to build electronic systems with a dedicated function and real-time responses. Modern systems need to carefully balance a complex set of features, manage security, and even run machine learning inferences while maintaining reasonable costs, scalability, and robustness. This book is organized into three critical areas:

Software Architecture and Design
Agile, DevOps, and Processes
Development and Coding Skills

Embedded System Design starts with a basic introduction to embedded software architecture and the considerations for a successful design. We then break down how to architect an RTOS-based application and explore common design patterns and building blocks. Next, we discuss embedded software design processes such as TDD, CI/CD, modeling, and simulation that can be used to accelerate development. Finally, we will discuss how to select a microcontroller, write configurable code, coding strategies, techniques, and tools developers can’t live without. By the end of this book, you will have a defined development process, understand modern software architecture, and be equipped to start building embedded systems.

What You Will Learn

Learn how to design and build embedded systems in a practical manner
