IoT Security Challenge
Security has become the biggest challenge for IoT device makers. New vulnerabilities surface at an increasing pace.
How can you protect users’ privacy and earn their trust year in year out? A single breach is enough to impact your revenues and brand materially, and ever more sophisticated attacks are developed daily. Even if your device is secure today doesn’t mean that you are covered tomorrow. Security is never ready.
Maintaining software, security, and device certifications up to date requires constant development. However, technology evolution accelerates, narrowing down codebase maintenance windows. Stabilizing software and getting support for, say, ten years is difficult and costly.
