DasharoStuart Yoder explains why standard assessment tools like #LFVS, #HSI, and #CHIPSEC struggle on #ARM systems, where diverse hardware designs make direct inspection unreliable. The lack of consistent, inspectable security primitives leaves significant blind spots for teams trying to validate platform security.

Security assessment on Arm platforms Developers vPub 0xC
Security assessment tooling such as LFVS HSI and Chipsec rely on standard security mechanisms that can be directly inspected by a tool. Due to the diversity of Arm-based hardware platforms doing direct inspection is difficult. This presentation discusses work underway to evaluate how security assessment could be done on Arm platforms and work towards a solution.
