      OP-TEE: Security and Trust

      Security & Trust

      OP-TEE: Open-Source Secure Operating System

      OP-TEE: Open Portable Trusted Execution Environment OP-TEE is a small secure operating system which, after authentication and decryption, gets loaded in an secured area in the memory. A Rich OS (e. g. Xilinx PetaLinunx) driver can request, via a Secure Monitor Call, the execution of a trusted application.

      OP-TEE is an Open-Source initiative driven by a Linaro team who maintains the code and makes it available for download at GitHub.

      MLE took the effort to port OP-TEE to Xilinx Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC and RFSoC devices and included device specific optimizations. The outcome is two-fold: Tightly integrated Open-Source maintained by experts of Xilinx System-on-Chip and ACAP technology. And, additional professional services for customization and product life cycle support.

      Key Features of OP-TEE in FPGAs

      • Enables running secure & trusted applications from within a rich Linux operating system
      • Utilizes standard ARM Trusted Execution Environment (TEE)
      • Utilizes advanced security functions in Xilinx Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC and RFSoC devices
      • Optional hardware acceleration for AES-CGM, RSA, SHA3, etc
      • Optional secure key handling with integrated PUF (Physically Unclonable Function) support
      • Optional handling for integrated eFUSE burning
      • Secure and non-secure bitstream loading
      • Support for custom secure functions in Programmable Logic

      Applications

      • Secure data storage
      • Secure communication
      • Secure Over-the-Air (SOTA) updates
      • Key to meet compliance with standards such as IEC 62443, IEC 27001 etc
      • Protect Functional Safety (SIL, ASIL) related designs
      • Secure touch inputs
      • Secure key handling

      Frequently Asked Questions

      Most of the Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC / RFSoC (ZynqMP) specific code for OP-TEE is currently going upstream to become part of the free open-source edition.

      However, there are functions of ZynqMP which require special handling, like the one-time-programmable eFuses, or support for custom secure PL functions, for example. Such device and/or application specific security functions of ZynqMP will be covered only by the PRO edition. Please refer to the comparison table above.

      Yes, MLE ships source code for OP-TEE PRO. Those ZynqMP platform specific code portions are available today and have passed review by the Xilinx Security Center of Excellence (COE). The most recent review was November 2019.

      OP-TEE Free is free-of-charge open-source software (FOSS) and can be downloaded from here: https://github.com/OP-TEE/ under a BSD 2-Clause License.
