SSDP is a suite of hardware tools and software blocks that enables application developers to quickly begin building apps that leverage eSE on the PN66T. With this platform, developers can test and validate their security applications on commercial mobile phones. In addition to providing real-world mobile phone solutions, the development platform includes industry use cases from companies such as Hyatt, 7Eleven, and TransportKiosk. SSDP can be used to build secure banking, transportation, access control, authentication, automotive, and various other applications.

Jeff Miles, Vice President of Business Development at NXP Semiconductors, said, “SSDP supports partners looking to build new security applications by eliminating the technical challenges partners face when securing credentials with secure elements (SE) in mobile phones and wearable devices. “Now, it is possible to build and validate new applications within weeks rather than months,” he said, adding, “SSDP will make the development community’s process efficient, thereby enabling mobile phone and wearable technology manufacturers to quickly bring new security apps to market.”

Hans Reisgies, Senior Vice President of Market Development at Sequent, stated, “NXP’s SSDP leverages the robust trust of the secure element (SE) to make it much easier for Sequent’s Trusted Services products to manage and utilize security-sensitive applications such as payments, transportation, access control, and ID. SSDP complements Sequent’s Open Wallet Platform, Digital Issuance, and Trust Authority products to significantly reduce complexity, time-to-market, and the cost of implementing trusted services on connected and mobile devices.”

As a leading operator of Secure Mobile Wallet Platforms, TORO provides m-commerce technology and a one-stop shop for businesses in banking, retail, transportation, and ticketing by integrating wallet access to all available security options. Laurent Renard, CEO of TORO, stated, “NXP’s SSDP provides access to the high level of security required by some service providers, while simultaneously registering users for new services in a much simpler manner.” “Since user adoption is the focus of our platform, TORO welcomes the SSDP initiative, which supports our goal of reaching all users and improves onboarding for service providers to generate much stronger user adoption,” he said.

Lars Sandtorv, CEO of MeaWallet, said, “MeaWallet is a leader in cloud-based mobile solutions, and through working with SSDP, we quickly gained deep capabilities and understanding of the Secure Element (SE). Being able to validate our solutions on SSDP has enabled us to support customers and partners in implementing next-generation solutions related to access control, transportation, and ticketing, thereby further expanding the use of smartphones instead of plastic cards.”

Ali Salcı, EVP of Cardtek Group, said, “By integrating our SP TSM with NXP’s SSDP loader service, we are enabling all service providers, such as banks and public transportation companies, operating on the Cardtek SP platform to easily install NFC-based services on devices equipped with NXP’s new chipsets. This new platform will not only simplify technology adoption for vendors like ours but also improve interoperability and compatibility with smart devices such as smartphones, tablets, and wearables.”
