The Trusted Execution Environment is an isolated hardware-protected processing environment within smartphones and other devices that enables dynamic security-sensitive applications on-the-go, such as authentication, VPN and secure email, payment and content protection.
By connecting to the Trustonic TEE, which is embedded in a large number of connected objects and remotely activable, the Allynis Trusted Service Hub is scaling up the addressable base of end users to maximize market reach for service providers seeking secure, rapid and easy deployment.
For end users, the process is completely transparent. When a secure app such as VPN is installed, Allynis Trusted Service Hub automatically secures it into the TEE, providing users and service providers with reassurance of their credentials, tokens and content data, the company said.
“Today, the addition of Trustonic TEE-enabled devices translates into hundreds of millions of new reachable users by enterprises and service providers who wish to protect their data, instantly”, said Jean-Claude Deturche, senior VP of Mobile Financial Services at Gemalto.
“Allynis Trusted Services Hub is fully technology-agnostic and addresses any type of security framework. In addition to offering the broadest reach of users, it also offers the most future-proof technology enabling service providers to maximize market reach in a simple and secure way across mobile platforms,” Deturche added.
