Walks on West Cliff

Strengthening Systems Cyber Security

During a sunny walk on West Cliff with Vish Iyer, we talked about how the battle for system security now starts the moment you press the power button.

Vish highlighted two essentials for protecting today’s electronic systems:

  • Secure Boot – Verifies every boot component is trusted, stopping tampered code before it runs.
  • TPM (Trusted Platform Module) – Hardware-level cryptography that locks down keys, passwords, and system integrity checks.

Why it matters:

Firmware-level attacks are growing in sophistication. Pairing Secure Boot’s software integrity verification with TPM’s cryptographic validation and tamper resistance strengthens Zero Trust architectures from the ground up.

As Vish put it:

In today’s high-risk cyber environment, securing the boot process isn’t optional—it’s essential.
