In their podcast episode 53, Heise takes a closer look at GrapheneOS. In the latest episode 55 they are also talking about us and our NitroPhones.
Be sure to check out their podcast. It's a genuinely interesting conversation and well worth a listen.

Our team spent the last three days at @TRUSTECH_Event 2025 in Paris. On paper, we could just say the conference was great โ rating it high, noting all the valuable meetings, and move on. But this time was different.
Why?
Because this time we shared our booth with other pioneers in hardware security who chose our openโarchitecture secure element TROPIC01 for their solutions. It would be a mistake not to introduce them properly.
Here are the partners who stood with us โ and what they brought to the show:
๐ @Trezor
Crypto HW wallets - Trezor Safe 7 new consumer electronics device โ proving that real money must not rely on a black box
๐ @nitrokey
FIDO2 open source security keys and other open source hardwareโ built for industries that need the highest security and trust in their devices
โ๏ธ @ContentWiseInfo
Embedded and EdgeโAI systems โ using TROPIC01 to build verifiable, tamperโresistant hardware stack from the ground up
โก @RDDLNetwork
Decentralized critical IoT energy infrastructure โ anchored by TROPIC01 for cryptographic trust at scale and autonomous behavior through attested identity
Every demo made the same point clear:
๐ If you canโt inspect it, you canโt trust it. If you canโt trust it, how can your customer trust it?
Thanks to our partners โ and everyone who visited or joined Jan Pleskac on the Innovation Stage.
#TROPIC01 isnโt just a product. Itโs a challenge to the idea that hardware security needs to stay closed.
๐ฉ Do you need to trust your devices too? Letโs talk!

Most of the world still runs on hardware you cannot check, audit or fully trust. Tropic Square is changing that narrative.
Together with @ContentWiseInfo , @nitrokey , @RDDLNetwork and @Trezor , we are heading to @TRUSTECH_Event ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ฑย in Paris. At our booth, you will see what real transparency looks like in practice.
Here is what you will find:
โข ๐๐ถ๐๐ฒ ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐บ๐ผ๐ ๐ผ๐ป #๐ง๐ฅ๐ข๐ฃ๐๐๐ฌ๐ญ showing open, production-ready security without NDAs or hidden behavior
โข @jan_pleskac'๐ ๐ธ๐ฒ๐๐ป๐ผ๐๐ฒ ๐ผ๐ป ๐๐ฒ๐ฐ๐ฒ๐บ๐ฏ๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐ฐ covering why secure identity cannot rely on closed hardware and how open silicon shifts certification, CRA compliance and long-term trust

If you want to meet the people rewriting how trust is built, not with marketing words but with silicon you can inspect, visit our booth.

Nitrokey is #opensource as you probably know. Now why are you using open-source software and/or hardware? What's your why? Let us know in the comments below! ๐
Thanks for the review, @PCMag! ๐
The Nitrokey 3C NFC offers all the authentication protocols most people will need in a small and sturdy package, but its wireless connectivity is spotty, and the key is more expensive than many competitors. pcmag.com/reviews/nitrokey-3โฆ
Time flies!! Celebrating 10 years of Nitrokey! ๐ Open-source security hardware made in Germany ๐ช Thanks a lot to everyone who's supporting us along the journey! ๐ We've prepared some goodies for you ๐ Check it out here:

Meet us at @itsa_ITSecurity Expo Congress 2025! ๐
October marks six months since we premiered the world's first open-source transparent chip, #TROPIC01. We are delighted to announce that we will be presenting the chip's full production and global availability at the @itsa_ITSecurity Expo Congress 2025 in Nuremberg.
And we are not going solo! Together with us will be our brothers in arms - @nitrokey and @ContentWiseInfo, partners and flagbearers of open architecture and transparent security, we will showcase live demos of TROPIC01 in real systems. Join us at Hall 6, Stand 6-101b to see live demos including:
โข Authentication and hardware security modules with @nitrokey (FIDO2, HSMs, trusted key storage)
โข Edge AI and PACS integrations with @ContentWiseInfo (secure boot, IoT resilience, video feed signing)
โข #TROPIC01, the first open-architecture secure element, driving trust at the hardware level
These demos show that open hardware is not only possible but is actively shaping the future of IT security.
Donโt have a ticket yet? Write to ๐๐ฒ๐น๐ฐ๐ผ๐บ๐ฒ@๐๐ฟ๐ผ๐ฝ๐ถ๐ฐ๐๐พ๐๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ฒ.๐ฐ๐ผ๐บ and we will provide one free of charge.
