+# Part 8 - Update (**OTA**)
+
+## Abstract
+
+Updating applications and firmware is essential for the development of new
+features and even more to fix security bugs.
+However, if a malicious third party manages to divert its first use, it could
+alter the functioning of the system and/or applications. The security of the
+updates is therefore a critical point to evaluate in order to guarantee the
+integrity, the confidentiality and the legitimacy of the transmitted data.
