The basic idea is to provide security at the chip level, separate from the operating system on a device. Such chips will provide a Trusted Execution Environment that can be used to store account information, passwords and other sensitive information, making it easier to use and access from a mobile device.

What does Trustonic do, exactly? Pretty much what Mobicore already does in the Galaxy S III, or what Trusted Foundation does inside a Tegra-powered tablet

Ben Cade, Trustonic’s chief executive and a former ARM vice-president, said the new venture would allow companies to become bolder in what they offer customers, without compromising security.

The Trusted Computing Group (TCG) develops, defines, and promotes open, vendor-neutral standards to enable more secure compute environments. It is best known for the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) technology.
