The TrE is based on a trusted root that cannot be removed. It is based on hardware
registers and an encrypted Flash partition, defined as TrustZone which is not
accessible from the operating system. It is accessible through a set of functions
that do not disclose the content of this memory, only enabling the use of the stored
information. It is built through a secure boot process executed every time the
Apex Lifestyle Small Cell is switched on or a hard-reset is performed.
