Winbond flash memory W77Q is SESIP Level 2 certified

Taiwan based memory chipmaker Winbond Electronics announced that its TrustME W77Q Secure Flash had obtained Security Evaluation Standard for IoT Platforms (SESIP) Level 2 with Physical Attacker Resistance Certification. Winbond says with SESIP level 2 certification, W77Q Secure Flash will provide connected devices a higher level of assurance by simultaneously requiring a vulnerability analysis and actual penetration testing on IoT platform design systems using Secure Flash in compliance with security and functional safety standards simultaneously. Further information shared by Windbond in its release includes: This is the first certification using GlobalPlatform SESIP Profile for Secure External Memories, and NIST 8259A (IoT device cybersecurity capability core baseline). The certification also claims compliance with IEC 62443 (security for industrial automation and control systems). With the prestigious industry-recognized security certification, TrustME W77Q Secure Flash can simultaneously satisfy emerging cybersecurity demands in IoT applications. The W77Q family has also been certified with the Common Criteria EAL2+, Functional safety ISO26262 ASIL-C level and FIPS 140-3 CAVP. W77Q Secure Flash comes in densities of 16Mb, 32Mb, 64Mb and 128Mb; it operates at a frequency of 66MHz in Double Transfer Rate mode and 133MHz in Single Transfer Rate mode. It featur...
