An Isolated Data Encryption Experiment Method by Utilizing Baseband Processors
Xue Bai, Lu Liu, Sikang Hu, Yuanzhang Li · 2018
With the rapid development of Android systems and the growing of Android market, Android system has become a focus of developers and users. MTK6795 is System-on-a-chip (SoC), which is specially designed by MediaTek for high-end smart phones. It integrates the application processor and the baseband processor in just one chip. In this paper, a new encryption method based on the baseband processor of MT6795 SoC is proposed and successfully applied on one Android-based smart phone to protect user data. In this method, the encryption algorithm and private user data are isolated into two processors, which improves the security of users' private data.
