A wireless apparatus, an integrated circuit, and a method thereof. The wireless apparatus, providing hardware security, comprises a secure memory and a secure Integrated Circuit (IC). The secure memory comprises security authentication data. The secure IC, coupled to the secured memory, comprises a processor, a security controller, a security pin, and a read only memory (ROM). The processor is configured to process data. The security controller, coupled to the processor and the secure memory, translates the security authentication data to the processor. The security pin, coupled to the security controller, enables security of the secure IC. The ROM, coupled to the processor, has stored thereon instructions determining a security level according to the security authentication data and the security of the secure IC. The instructions are executed by the processor upon a boot-up operation.
