+# Flash Backdoor Utility Class
+
+The `flash_bkdr_util` class extends the functionality of the `mem_bkdr_util` class with the
+scrambling of flash memory contents.
+
+Class instances are created in the testbench module and passed to the UVM environment via `uvm_config_db`.
+
+### Methods
+* `flash_write_scrambled`: Write scrambled data into the flash memory at the given address
