Method for operating a control device
First Claim
1. A method for operating a control device having a system-on-a-chip having a processor unit and a security processor unit, the method comprising:
- instructing, via the processor unit, the security processor unit to execute security-critical processes, the processor unit and the security processor unit each having at least one processor core;
assigning a priority, by the processor unit or by the security processor unit, to each of the security-critical processes that are to be executed in the security processor unit; and
executing the security-critical processes in the security processor unit as a function of the respective priority.
