Abstract: A secure programming system can receive a job control package having a security kernel and a target payload of content for programming into a pre-defined set of trusted devices. A device programmer can install a security kernel on the trusted devices and reboot the trusted devices using the security kernel to validate the proper operation of the security kernel. The target payload can then be securely installed on the trusted devices and validated.

Abstract: A secure programming system and method for provisioning and programming a target payload into a programmable device mounted in a programmer. The programmable device can be authenticated before programming to verify the device is a valid device produced by a silicon vendor. The target payload can be programmed into the programmable device and linked with an authorized manufacturer. The programmable device can be verified after programming the target payload by verifying the silicon vendor and the authorized manufacturer.

Abstract: A method of operation of an automated assembly system includes: detecting a socket adapter having an adapter identifier and an adapter cryptographic chip; calculating a primary key hash based on a primary key in a programming cryptographic chip; calculating an adapter hash based on the adapter identifier using the adapter cryptographic chip; matching the primary key hash to the adapter hash to update an authentication token with the adapter identifier for authenticating the socket adapter on the device programming system; and programming programmable devices in the socket adapter based on the authentication token.
