Embedded trust and on-device security form the anchor and the foundational building blocks from which any trusted digital application can be launched, from payments and identity to connectivity and device management. Understanding the components’ landscape, ecosystem players, and the embedded security tools available are critical requirements in order to shape future embedded security strategies. ABI Research’s Trusted Device Solutions Research Service provides essential market intelligence to help ecosystem players analyze and address embedded security strategies.

Trusted Device Solutions Research Powers Technology Innovation & Implementation

For Innovators

Enable smarter, market-driven security roadmaps by translating requirements for secure boot, secure storage, authentication, attestation, identity, and secure communications into clear guidance on form-factor selection and next-generation trust architectures. Support more confident R&D prioritization with competitive benchmarking that highlights where and how to differentiate, and with market forecasts that quantify TAM, shipment trajectories, and demand timing—so investments are aligned to the biggest opportunities and products launch when the market is ready.

For Implementers

Help implementers get ahead of regulatory pressure and product risk by turning mandates such as the EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) and NIS2 into actionable design requirements for globally compliant security. Pair this with deep insight into secure semiconductor offerings to inform scalable hardware choices, and with practical recommendations for embedding security across verticals at different stages of maturity—ensuring the right architectures, applications, and use cases are targeted at the right time to maximize adoption and long-term value.
