Hi,

is the Notecard ARM firmware open source or otherwise available?

Kind regards,

Hi @tamberg, it is not, and we do not have plans to open-source it at this time.

Thanks. I can imagine that the firmware is your “secret sauce”.

In my experience, (industrial) customers want to know what code runs on “their” devices.

I realise that modem firmware is often proprietary, but your product includes “application level” firmware, so trust becomes more of an issue, doesn’t it?

Kind regards,
Thomas

Hi Thomas,

I’m curious what you mean by “application level” firmware. What kinds of use cases and trust are you concerned with?

Thanks,

Carl

As far as I understand, the modem firmware receives unencrypted data, doesn’t it? Also managing certificates / keys seems to be done by the modem, right? This is very convenient, but at the same time requires customers to trust your code, doesn’t it? Kind regards, Thomas
