SecEdge Launches SEC-TPM for ASPEED's AST2600: a Game-changing Secure Connectivity Solution for Server Remote Administration Protection


Digital security leader SecEdge, Inc. announced the release of its SEC-TPM turnkey security solution for secure remote server provisioning and management. The solution now supports ASPEED Technology's AST2600 Server Management Processor, providing a widespread chip-to-cloud Board Management Controller (BMC) security solution.

SEC-TPM is a Trusted Computing Group (TCG) compliant Firmware TPM (fTPM), rooted in the AST2600's secure hardware execution enclosure. It enables greater supply chain security for server hardware via a post-assembly trust provisioning and attestation service.

SC-TPM for AST2600, integrated with the SecEdge Security Platform, introduces several disruptive benefits for cloud computing.



  • Secures OpenBMC by providing a hardware-based root-of-trust.
  • Enables in-field, zero-touch activation of the AST2600 embedded TPM, even in an untrusted supply chain environment.
  • Establishes IPSEC communication channels from the AST2600 to the cloud, separating data and management planes.
  • Remote life cycle management of servers is secured with IP Masking.
  • The solution is future-proof through crypto-agility, enabling quantum-resistant algorithms.

"ASPEED's AST2600 Server Management Processor is equipped with a secure trust zone to enable silicon-based root of trust", said Luke Chen, Sales VP of ASPEED Technology. "SecEdge Digital security platform advances turnkey digital security protection for server management by using TrustZone™ in ASPEED's BMC SoCs."

"ASPEED has an uncontested market share in the board management controller application processors," said Sami Nassar, President & co-CEO of SecEdge. "SecEdge secure connectivity platform will be widely available out of the box, making state of the art security for server management widely available."


The solution allows device makers to meet industry and regulation compliance, TCG, NIST, CRA for the IoT, and the Microsoft Azure Edge Secured Core Certification. More information available on SEC-TPM.
