Abstract

Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are disclosed to provide secure operations in an M2M device. An M2M device may receive an indication that an operation to be performed is security sensitive. The M2M device may determine that the operation is to be performed in a secure environment on the M2M device. The secure environment may be a logically distinct portion of the M2M device. The determination may be made in in accordance with a policy. For example, the M2M device may determine that the operation meets a requirement specified in the policy indicating that the operation is to be performed in the secure environment. The M2M device may perform the operation in the secure environment on the M2M device. The M2M device may store a result relating to the operation in the secure environment.
