Trusted Logic, Gemalto partner for secure access solution on Android Platform

Friday, February 19, 2010

Trusted Logic has just presented a mobile security solution that integrates its TRUSTED FOUNDATIONS SOFTWARE and Gemalto’s USIM ACCESS API on an ST-Ericsson platform.

The new solution, which runs on an Android platform, was demonstrated during the Mobile World Congress 2010 in Barcelona.

According to Trusted Logic, the combination of the company’s security software and Gemalto’s USIM ACCESS API provides OEMs and telecom operators with a complete security solution, enabling the development and deployment of new value-added services.

As part of the new solution, Trusted Logic’s security software allows the “fast and flexible” implementation of security features on any hardware platform, and features a “virtualization layer” that provides isolation between sensitive applications and the main operating system, thus allowing the execution of separate software stacks.

The Gemalto, Trusted Logic, ST-Ericsson collaboration is part of the “MaXSSIMM” (My Secure Solution for Mobile Media Internet) Strategic Industrial Innovation Program from OSEO, a French public agency which supports innovation and development . [end]
