Why Secure Boot Is Now an FDA Expectation
The FDA now expects medical devices to use a secure boot. Without it, devices can run unauthorized firmware, including malware or compromised code from supply chain attacks.
wolfBoot is a secure bootloader for embedded medical devices. It uses wolfCrypt to verify firmware signatures before allowing code to run. Only authenticated firmware executes.
For additional security:
[wolfTPM](https://www.wolfssl.com/products/wolftpm/) - Stores boot keys in hardware
[wolfHSM](https://www.wolfssl.com/products/wolfhsm/) - Isolates cryptographic operations during boot
Secure boot helps manufacturers meet FDA requirements and prevent firmware attacks.
