Hello everyone, and welcome to another episode of Embedded Edge, where we explore the technologies shaping the future of embedded systems. Today’s episode is brought to you by our sponsor, Infineon.

In today’s hyper-connected world, embedded and IoT devices are everywhere—from our homes to critical industrial systems. But with this connectivity comes vulnerability. Cybersecurity is no longer just a software issue; it’s a holistic challenge shaped by hardware, regulations, cryptography, and the evolving threat landscape. In this episode our guest is Clark Jarvis, Software and Tools Technical Marketer at Infineon. Building on over two decades of product experience for embedded software and development tools, Clark focuses on creating efficient and intuitive design experiences to help embedded engineers ultimately master and speed the development of IoT and industrial applications. In this episode we dive deep into security topic and how Infineon is addressing these challenges, helping developers secure devices throughout their lifecycle—from prototype to production—while ensuring compliance with global standards. We’ll explore the concepts of Root of Trust, chain of authentication, consumer vs. industrial risks, and even look ahead to post-quantum security.
