To use it, the caller (normally Fusée-secondary) loads the sept-primary binary to `0x4003F000`, +loads the 7.0.0+ TSEC firmware to `0x40010F00`, and loads a signed, encrypted payload to `0x40016FE0`. + +This signed, encrypted payload is normally Sept-secondary. + +## Sept-Secondary +Sept-secondary is a payload that performs 7.0.0+ key derivation, and then chainloads to `sept/payload.bin`. + +It is normally stored encrypted/signed; if one wishes to build sept-secondary instead of using release builds, one must bring his/her own keys.
