Flash Code Protection
Cypress products meet the specifications contained in their particular Cypress PSoC Data Sheets. Cypress believes that its
family of PSoC products is one of the most secure families of its kind on the market today, regardless of how they are used.
There may be methods, unknown to Cypress, that can breach the code protection features. Any of these methods, to our
knowledge, would be dishonest and possibly illegal. Neither Cypress nor any other semiconductor manufacturer can guaran-
tee the security of their code. Code protection does not mean that we are guaranteeing the product as ‘unbreakable’.
Cypress is willing to work with the customer who is concerned about the integrity of their code. Code protection is constantly
evolving. We at Cypress are committed to continuously improving the code protection features of our products.
