Open Virtualization's SierraTEE is a secure kernel that leverage's the TrustZone architecture extensions in ARM processors. The SierraTEE kernel can be run in parallel with a more full-featured operating system, such as Linux, Android, or BSD, on the same core. SierraTEE uses security extensions to completely protect the secure kernel and peripherals from code running in the primary operating system. This means that even if an attacker manages to obtain full supervisor privileges to the primary operating system, the attacker cannot gain access to the secure kernel. The first, integrated open source hypervisor and Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) for ARM has been ported to the Zynq-7000 AP SoC platform. SierraVisor enables multiple operating systems to run concurrently on ARM devices. SierraTEE provides a secure environment for payment and digital rights management and other sensitive applications.
