A control device of the present embodiment has a communication I/F, a built-in non-volatile memory, a controller, an external-serial-memory I/F, a security management module, and an access controller. The communication I/F enables communication with outside. The built-in non-volatile memory has a first storage region, which stores an initialization program which carries out initialization operation, and a second storage region, which stores currently used firmware which is executed after the initialization operation and acquires firmware for update via the communication I/F. The controller executes the initialization program and the currently used firmware. The external-serial-memory I/F communicably connects the device of its own to an external non-volatile memory via a serial bus. The security-mode management module fixes an access control setting of the built-in non-volatile memory and the external non-volatile memory. The access controller outputs a level signal different from the serial bus.

Control device, information processing device, and information processing system

According to one embodiment, an information processing device includes a processor, a controller, and a memory. The memory stores a vector address related to an interrupt request executed on condition that the processor is in a sleep state. The controller receives the interrupt request and detects that the processor transitions to the sleep state, detects fetch of the vector address of the interrupt request after the sleep state of the processor is detected, and inputs the vector address that is related to the interrupt request and stored in the memory into the processor in a case where the fetch of the vector address of the interrupt request is detected.

Information processing device and processing method

An information processing device updates its own secret key according to an update request including request order information, the information processing device being provided with: a storage unit that stores, in a nonvolatile manner, a master secret key, a secret key, and order comparison information that enables comparison of the request order of the update request; and an update unit that, in a case where the update request has been made, compares the request order information and the order comparison information, and in a case where it has been determined that the order of the update request is authorized, updates the order comparison information to information corresponding to the request order information before update processing of the secret key is performed by using the master secret key.

Information processing device, information processing system, and method for controlling information processing device including comparing request order information and order comparison information

According to one embodiment, an information processing apparatus is applied to an embedded system in an electric device and includes a first circuit. The first circuit is configured to request a server different from the information processing apparatus to determine whether a debug or software change is possible in response to external access.

Information processing apparatus, system and method

An information processing apparatus includes a nonvolatile memory, a flag settable to a first value indicating that a program stored in a memory region of the nonvolatile memory has not been verified, and to a second value indicating that the program has been verified, a switching circuit configured to set the flag to the first value, in response to a request for permission to modify the program stored in the memory region, and a verification circuit that sets the flag to the second value upon verification of the program stored in the memory region, and upon restart of the information processing apparatus, carries out a verification process of the program prior to execution of the program if the first value is set in the flag, and executes the program without the verification process if the second value is set in the flag.
