Security of Motorola Droid-family phones based on two important technologies:
1.eFuse cells for one-time blowing to increment counter for security purposes
2.M-Shield protection, solution from Texas Instruments special for cellular networks (similar as SecureShield from Quallcomm)
M-Shield
This is an extended implementation of MTM (Mobile Trusted Module) of Trusted Computing Group, based on reference design of MTM, and embedded into OMAP chip. Also it support TrustZone ARM technology. It's located on it's own ROM/RAM and in M-Shield only software emulation - see TrustZone specification. Both, Secure and Insecure world are running on one core. From insecure world it's called by the SMC ARM instruction
