from the start, allowing for the tracking, verification, and
provisioning of DTEK50.

stage of DTEK50’s secure boot chain must first verify that
the next component is fully intact before proceeding,
ensuring your device has not been tampered with since the
last restart.

security patches, improved random number, address space
generation and certificate pinning to make it more difficult
for attackers to target a device by scrambling application/
system memory.

private information, like pictures or bank information, from
being stolen if you were to lose your phone
