Preface
It has been a while since the last Definitive Guide to Arm® Cortex®-M Processor book was released. Now, Cortex-M23- and Cortex-M33-based products are arriving in the market and many of them provide sophisticated security features—the definition of “modern microcontrollers” seems to have taken a big step forward. Although the mechanisms of these security features are tailored for small silicon devices with a low power footprint, many of these security technologies are, in principle, similar to high-end computing systems.
