The bootstrap loader (BSL) provides a means to program and verify the device memory through a standard serial interface (UART or I2C), as opposed to the serial wire debug interface. The BSL has its own configuration policy, but the BCR determines if the BSL is enabled to be invoked, or if it is to be disabled (non-invokable).
Since the BSL presents an additional attack surface, if it is not used in an application it may be disabled in the user-specified boot security policies. If the BSL is used in an application, then the BSL security settings (including the BSL access password) are managed in the BSL configuration policy.
