# T2 platform research

> T2 platform research maps Apple T2 firmware, hardware and Linux-facing interfaces using static analysis, hardware observations and driver comparisons. Its chapters cover Secure Enclave services, boot and recovery, graphics, audio, sensors, storage and other subsystems. Machine-readable findings and board indexes connect claims to their evidence, with Python reference code for selected message formats.
