Advantech has announced that its Arm-based HMI TPC-100W series of Panel PCs, powered by NXP’s i.MX 8M Mini quad-core processor, has achieved Arm SystemReady IR certification. The panel PCs now feature Secure Boot, a critical safeguard against unauthorised firmware and malicious code. Using Public Key Infrastructure (PKI), this security layer protects system integrity and safeguards sensitive operations from cyberthreats.

With SystemReady IR certification, the panel PCs adhere to industry standards, including support for UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface). UEFI enables consistent boot processes, reducing integration complexity and improving system compatibility — key for industrial applications where uptime is vital.

The certification also enables support for a wide range of operating systems, including Linux Yocto, Ubuntu and Debian. This compatibility helps ensure minimal customisation and facilitates integration into existing ecosystems. Standardised boot processes facilitate automatic security updates, helping developers focus on application development rather than system configuration.

With the TPC-100W series, Advantech empowers industrial clients to accelerate deployment, enhance cybersecurity and reduce time-to-market.
