I am trying to find the locations on the embedded devices with micros that don't support HSM/SHE. What are the ideas/suggestions for storing the symmetric keys? I found solutions that suggest using public/private keys to encrypt this symmetric key but the micros are not capable of doing this.

  • An Arduino is capable of public key encryption. Even a small Attiny85 have enough memory to do so. Commented Mar 29, 2024 at 18:06
  • Please clarify your specific problem or provide additional details to highlight exactly what you need. As it's currently written, it's hard to tell exactly what you're asking. Commented Mar 29, 2024 at 22:24
  • @ThoriumBR Performing the encryption and decryption based on the public key is fine but looking to store the secret symmetric key with read/write protection. Commented Apr 1, 2024 at 21:15
  • You could use a Lockable Teensy for that, if your adversary isn't willing to spend several hundred thousand dollars breaking your device. Commented Apr 1, 2024 at 21:58
  • Thank you @ThoriumBR. What is the possible way for automotive ECUs? This hardware is not possible to integrate into automotive ECUs. Commented Apr 10, 2024 at 15:14
