Flash encryption on an ESP32 is used to protect the contents of the device's flash memory from unauthorized access, meaning that even if someone physically removes the flash chip, they cannot easily read the sensitive data stored on it, significantly enhancing the security of the device, especially when storing sensitive information like API keys or user credentials.Secure Boot is a separate feature which can be used together with flash encryption to create an even more secure environment.This is an advanced course for students who are already familiar with the ESP32 microcontroller.<h3 id="01ccb68c-ff1c-436c-87db-dc81e40645bf" data-toc-id="01ccb68c-ff1c-436c-87db-dc81e40645bf">This course is for you if:</h3><ul><li>You already have some knowledge of the ESP-IDF</li><li>You care about your company’s and your clients’ security. </li><li>You are curious and want to know the security features available for the ESP32.</li><li>You have been wanting to secure your chips but ran into trouble or couldn’t quite understand how it worked. </li></ul><h3 id="7bb6466f-9293-47a3-aa80-157369ec2afe" data-toc-id="7bb6466f-9293-47a3-aa80-157369ec2afe">This course is not for you if:’</h3><ul><li>You are not familiar with, or are just starting with the ESP-IDF.</li><li>You are not familiar with coding in C.</li></ul>
