[ESP32-D0WD] Security precautions specific to SDIO slave interface?

Hi!

I am working on securing a legacy device (making it as secure as I can, that is...), specifically an ESP32-D0WD. I have enabled secure boot, flash encryption, and set the eFuses as recommended in the ESP-IDF documentation. However, I am still a little concerned about the SDIO slave interface ...

Re: Compiling an ESP32 memory map: am I correct regarding readable/writeable/executable regions?

Are you only concerned with flash or actually (also) asked about RAM?
Good question - "a memory map where the code and data is located inside the device" (which is what I am being asked for) is something I interpret as flash memory.

Compiling an ESP32 memory map: am I correct regarding readable/writeable/executable regions?

Hello, I have been asked to compile a memory map for an ESP32 project. I understand how the flash memory is laid out for my project. However, there is another aspect I have been asked to include in this memory map: "if each memory region is readable, writeable and/or executable".

My question is ...

MQTT broker cert is expiring - best way to increase lifetime of new devices?

Hello.

I have a project built using an ESP32 with Micropython. I am relying on an external MQTT broker - namely mqtt.thingsboard.cloud. How I have currently set up the device is that it only trusts the root certificate of mqtt.thingsboard.cloud. This certificate is provided by the company hosting ...

Possible security problems with using flash on a securebooted device?

Hello,

I am working on a security overhaul before a device hits production.

The device runs MicroPython.

Currently, Secure Boot (v1) is enabled on the device.

The device stores private connection keys as on the flash, that are written to the flash on first boot. I.e. some pseudocode would be ...
