Abstract
Aspects of a method and system for multi-level security initialization and configuration are provided. A security system may comprise a security processor, a host processor, and at least one security component, such as a descrambler. The security processor may enable a security component based on information stored within a non-volatile memory integrated within the security processor. The host processor may enable generation of at least one configuration command communicated to the security processor for configuring the enabled security component. The configuration command may correspond to a security control operational mode for the security component that may indicate, for example, activation or deactivation of the security component. The security processor may authenticate a digital signature in the configuration command. Initialization and configuration may be performed during a system boot sequence of the security system.
