Trustonic is a joint venture formed in 2012 by blue chip leaders in the semiconductor (ARM) and digital security (Thales) industries. It is Trustonic’s mission to protect, enrich and simplify people’s digital lives by enabling optimum security on all smart connected devices and associated services and applications.

We’re proud to be the company behind the next generation of smart connected device security. 

Our focus is securing devices by providing a trusted foundation upon which service providers can secure, enrich and simplify people’s digital lives. Our partners include the leading device, silicon, enterprise, identity, commerce and content companies.

If working in a small, innovative company with great backers, a global ecosystem, and the opportunity to change the way people, things, and services interact, then we’d love to hear from you.

The Managed Trust Team is part of the wider Engineering group within Trustonic and is responsible for developing and delivering the servers and systems that underpin the Root of Trust and Asset Lifecycle Protection Service™ (ALPS) for our many partners.

ALPS is a platform designed to give mobile operators complete control over the remote lock and unlock process. MNOs and MVNOs can now minimize smartphone theft, fraud and trafficking, allowing them to safeguard their device investments, protect revenue and drive additional profit contribution.

The ALPS platform consists of on-device Modem firmware, Android services and service running in the Trustonic Trusted Execution Environment (TEE), plus in-factory key provisioning technologies and large scale web services which are used by MNO applications to attest that devices are genuine and to request lock/unlock of specific devices.
