How Secure Is Your Smart Lock? Let’s Go Deeper Than Just ‘Encrypted’

You’ve probably seen “S2 encryption” or “secure Z-Wave” on lock boxes, but what does that actually mean?

S2 is a solid start - it encrypts traffic between your lock and hub, so no one can just spoof commands.

But our new Bolt Z-Wave Lock (ZG28) goes a step further:

✅ Secure Boot: Your lock can’t run anything shady — only signed, verified firmware.

✅ Hardware Crypto: Encryption handled at the silicon level, not in firmware.

✅ TrustZone-style isolation: Sensitive processes run in their own secure space.

TL;DR: It's not just "secure." It's designed for real-world threats - the kind where someone might actually target your smart home.

If you’re serious about security (especially in rentals, villas, or retail setups), it’s worth digging deeper than surface-level encryption.
