Webinar Overview:

In this webinar we look at the challenges of managing the process of updating software on embedded Linux systems remotely – often referred to as an Over The Air or OTA update.

The Webinar will cover:

• The necessity and challenges of updating devices in the field
• Security issues when dealing with remote device updates
• The importance of a robust implementation
• Additional security measures required for OTA

Toradex will demonstrate how this challenge can be solved in a real world example, using the Torizon Platform on hardware featuring NXP i.MX Applications Processors.

Webinar agenda:

• Common OTA features
• Types of OTA – package based, image based
• Challenges of OTA – power-cut tolerance, rollbacks security
• Integrating with a build system
• Open Source solutions for OTA
• A Toradex solution
