Synopsis

This book (AI in Embedded Linux Security) will secure the Future of Embedded Devices—Master Embedded Linux Security from the Inside Out.

As embedded Linux systems quietly power the smart devices we rely on—from appliances and wearables to industrial controllers—they’ve also become prime targets for cyberattacks. In a world of always-connected technology, security can no longer be an afterthought—it must be engineered from the ground up.

In this comprehensive and practical guide, a seasoned technology expert with over 30 years of experience arms you with the critical tools and battle-tested strategies to fortify both the hardware and software of your embedded Linux systems. Whether you're building an AI-powered device or securing a legacy appliance, you'll find the knowledge you need to design systems that are resilient, secure, and future-proof.

Learn how to think like an attacker—and build like a defender. Explore the inner workings of embedded systems, discover how to harden every layer from boot to BIOS, and master proven techniques for lifecycle protection, secure configuration, and automated updates. This is more than just theory—this is your field guide to security-by-design.

What You’ll Learn

• Choose the right hardware platform to balance performance, power, and protection
• Apply security-by-design principles to every phase of development
• Implement robust features like TPM, LUKS encryption, and secure boot
• Design systems that defend against supply chain attacks and misuse
• Build and maintain a secure CI/CD pipeline and software supply chain
• Protect sensitive data and AI models from evolving threats
