Internet of Things - Why bother?

Operation Technology OT and Information Technology IT have long remained autonomous functions, with robust data boundaries between them. The volume and variety of data generated by sensors, actuators, machines, and gateways on the OT side are often huge and stored in silos, which lead to problems in holistic data analysis, storage, and monitoring from IT and business functions.

IoT security issue are well known, but not easily addressed. Most security tools use methods developed for our 64-bit laptops, tablets, or smartphones that are not well-suited for the low resource 8-,16- or 32- bit devices that are the foundation of the IoT today. These security methods are also typically computationally intensive—putting both a time-to-compute and energy burden on battery-powered devices. In this webinar, we will learn how the Renesas-SecureRF partnership uniquely delivers a practical and secure identification and authentication solution that meets the easy-to-deploy, low-power requirements of IoT edge nodes.

Have you been challenged by your management to design a state-of-the-art IOT solution? Are you searching for the right microcontroller to be used? You don’t want to make any trade-offs, but enjoy large memory, high security, and easy use?

PKI and machine identities are essential building blocks to digital trust as organizations accelerate their path to multi-cloud, zero-trust, and DevOps strategies. According to research from the Identity Defined Security Alliance, 2022 Trends in Securing Digital Identities, 98% of organizations indicated that they are experiencing a growth in identities with 43% attributing the growth to machine identities. Organizations are struggling with the expansion of identity types and specifically the expansion in the machine identity landscape, and the challenges are getting more complex.
