A stripped down version of iBoot, missing things such as interacting with the filesystem. Can be uploaded via DFU to bootstrap iBEC during a DFU Mode restore.

Your iBSS and iBEC is used to sign the firmware before uploading it to the ROM. This was a new layer of security (certificates) Apple had added to try stop jailbreakers.
