That's why the device by intentionally limited in +functionality. + +

+ +This means that Betrusted is not a "smartphone": it can’t browse the web; it +has no “app store”; it won’t hail rides for you; and it can’t help you +navigate a city. However, it will be able to keep your private +conversations private, give you a solid second factor for +authentication, and perhaps provide a safe spot to store digital +currency. + +Betrusted software is the application project companion for the +Betrusted hardware device. Going beyond just end-to-end encryption the +Betrusted project ensures that Human-Computer Interaction is also +secure from key loggers and screen grabbers. The software will include +an input method editor to facilitate entering text in both Latin and +Asian languages as well as a graphics toolkit for the ultra low power +display. This project will develop a secure messaging application on +top of these input/output libraries while meeting the constraint that +all software must fit in an extraordinarily small memory footprint (4 MiB RAM). + +Later today in Leipzig at the [36th Chaos Communication Congress][36c3] +[bunnie][bunnie] will present +[Open Source is Insufficient to Solve Trust Problems in Hardware][trust-hardware]. + +Stay tuned for further updates on the Betrusted hardware, OS and +software projects. + +The [Betrusted Software][betrusted-software] project is made possible with +financial support from [NLnet][nlnet] and the +[NG10 Privacy & Trust Enhancing Technologies Fund][pet]. + + +[[!tag betrusted software risc-v matrix rust]] + +[bunnie]: https://fahrplan.events.ccc.de/congress/2019/Fahrplan/speakers/3155.html +[xobs]: https://fahrplan.events.ccc.de/congress/2019/Fahrplan/speakers/4376.html +[betrusted]: https://betrusted.io/ +[36c3]: https://www.ccc.de/en/updates/2019/36c3-in-leipzig +[trust-hardware]: https://fahrplan.events.ccc.de/congress/2019/Fahrplan/events/10690.html +[betrusted-software]: https://nlnet.nl/project/BetrustedSoftware/ +[nlnet]: https://nlnet.nl/ +[pet]: https://nlnet.nl/PET/ -- 2.45.2
