→Introduction
Even if this technology has been conceived primarily to address security issues, embedded systems designers can leverage it to implement innovative configurations satisfying different in nature requirements that typically arise in industrial applications and deep embedded systems{{efn|These kind of requirements are often totally independent of Internet connectivity}}. Two of such requirements are real-timeness and system integrity.
In this context, for the terms '''integrity''' and '''security''' the definitions provided by <ref name="WP461">Ed Hallett, Giulio Corradi, Steven McNeil, ''Xilinx WP461 - Xilinx Reduces Risk and Increases Efficiency for IEC61508 and ISO26262 Certified Safety Applications (v1.0)'', April 9, 2015</ref> are in use:* '''security''' refers to a system’s immunity to data disclosure or loss as a result of the unlawful
electronic penetration of the system’s protections and defenses
* '''integrity''' denotes the certainty that a system cannot be improperly altered.
