In a partnership between Sprint and Harman, TREBL was developed to provide new generation Magic
Box capabilities for Sprint with integrated harman/kardon premium audio and Alexa capabilities.
This section contains the following topics:
•Capabilities of the device

Security features of TREBL
This section describes security measures that have been taken to secure your TREBL. It contains the
following topics:
•Private key
•eSIM

TREBL User Guide

Private key
Each device has a private key and associated certificate which is used to authenticate itself when
initiating communications.
This private key is generated in the factory, and so is the corresponding vendor certificate. This
capability is necessary to support large scale plug and play deployments.
This device key is stored on the Sprint TREBL to allow it to authenticate to the network. If the private key
is compromised, then the device can be masqueraded by an attacker towards the operator’s core
network. Therefore, it is stored in an encrypted form.
In later releases a device-specific key will be introduced, this is a random number blown into on-SoC
eFuses during manufacture. This offers two points of additional protection namely: the key is not
discoverable by decompiling the code (an attacker will need to run code on the device to read the
eFuses); and the key can only be used to obtain the private key of a single device (because each
encryption key is unique).
eSIM
The system provides an embedded SIM (eSIM) to the board instead of using a removable SIM. This
removes the temptation to steal the SIM. Additionally, the operator can ensure that these SIMs can only
be used with the Relay APN, which would make them unusable with an ordinary mobile phone (because
relay traffic uses nested GTP-U tunnels).
