The JTAG debug port can be physically disabled to prevent JTAG access in deployed systems. The recommended scheme is to hold test clock (TCK) to ground and hold test mode select (TMS) high. Disabling of the JTAG port also provides coverage for inadvertent activation of many debug and trace activities; since these are often initiated using an external debug tool that writes commands to the device using the JTAG port.
