Industry-Leading Security for Evolving IoT Threats
Securing the IoT is challenging. It’s also mission-critical. The challenge of protecting connected devices against frequently surfacing IoT security vulnerabilities follows device makers throughout the entire product lifecycle. Protecting your product in a connected world is a necessity as customer data and modern online business models are increasingly targets for costly hacks and corporate brand damage. To stay secure, device makers need an underlying security platform in the hardware, software, network, and cloud. We’ve got you covered.
IoT Security Trends
Hacking Targets Are Moving from IT to OT
Cyber crime is moving from Information Technology to Operational Technology where the “real” money is to be made with ransomware. More ransomware was paid in 2019 alone than in the previous three years total. Learn how to prepare for next-gen cyber-attacks on IoT.
Security Regulations Are Growing
Stringent security and privacy regulations are being mandated at the state, federal and global levels, including the NISTIR (Interagency Report) 8259 in the US and the European ETSI EN 303 645. In addition, industry-specific standards are being developed, such as the DTSec IEEE SA P2621.1 for wireless diabetes devices. Read our stance on IoT security standards.
