IoT Security
Overview
The IoT industry is not standardised and this includes security, with a number of manufacturers taking their own stance on what security ‘should look like’. With IoT growth exceeding all expectations then a security solution that scales and is vendor and platform agnostic is required that protects traffic content in addition to ensuring rogue devices do not join the network. Such a solution needs to work across a multitude of platforms, support a number of communication protocols and be lightweight for the UNB, NBIoT and CellularIoT networks.
Bandwidth & Message Size
NBIoT and UNB networks require small message size and low number of messages per day
Multi IoT Vendors
IRP protocol level automation and SDK allow multi-vendor integration
Encryption
Traditional encryption methods do not address new technology requirements of IoT
Multi Communication Mechanism
From IoT to IIoT to wearables, IoT needs requires multi level communication across BLE, cellular, wifi, RFID etc
Closed Network Certificates
IoT networks are often closed and need private hierarchy certificates as opposed to public certificates
On-premise vs Cloud
IoT security needs to support both on-prem and cloud deployments
Once IoT devices and users have been assigned a unique digital identity, it can be used for authentication and enabling encryption on communications between other users and services. Build your IoT devices using the IRP client SDK to enable support for over-the-air certificate deployment and lifecycle management. When a new device with IRP SDK is provisioned in an IoT network, it will connect to IRP to obtain its unique digital identity, based on the unique identifier in the device such as its serial number.
Product Information
Sixscape IoT Security Suite is a PKI based product which enables IoT devices and users to be issued with a digital identity. Sixscape’s Identity Registration Platform allows SixIoT to issue digital identities to millions or billions of IoT devices distributed across various domains, avoiding the traditional PKI bottleneck of centralized digital certificate issuance.
Sixscape IoT Security Suite enables IoT administrators to securely register, manage and provision digital certificates for IoT devices. Sixscape IRP Platform also supports integration with various IoT cloud platforms to automatically publish the issued certificates, thus avoiding all the manual registration procedures.
