From the outset, incorporating robust security measures into the design of IoT devices is crucial. Kudelski IoT offers comprehensive design services that help developers and designers integrate strong security protocols tailored to their specific business contexts. This process begins with an IoT Threat Assessment, which identifies the most probable risks and threat scenarios, and provides a detailed report with recommended mitigations and security controls. Such proactive measures ensure that security is a foundational element of the product, rather than an afterthought.
Ensuring that an IoT device is secure against current and emerging threats requires rigorous testing and evaluation. Kudelski IoT's Device Security Evaluations highlight security gaps in both hardware and software, providing actionable recommendations to achieve a trusted security level. These evaluations include in-depth analyses of the device’s strengths and weaknesses, the root causes of vulnerabilities, and the effort required to execute potential attacks. By addressing these issues before market release, developers can significantly reduce the risk of security breaches.
Achieving certification from recognized bodies not only enhances the credibility of IoT devices but also ensures compliance with industry standards and regulatory schemes. Kudelski IoT is an authorized security lab for major certifications such as Amazon’s Alexa, AT&T, and ANSSI (CSPN). Their certification services not only help developers meet the necessary requirements but also provide valuable insights to improve the long-term security of the products. Regulatory compliance with schemes like the Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure (PSTI) in the UK, the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) in the EU, and relevant U.S. legislation such as the IoT Cybersecurity Improvement Act, is crucial for gaining customer trust and meeting regulatory compliance.
The security landscape is dynamic, with new threats emerging regularly. Continuous monitoring of device firmware is essential to maintain security throughout the product lifecycle. Kudelski IoT’s Continuous Firmware Monitoring service provides daily scans and updates, identifying new vulnerabilities and ensuring that devices remain within their defined security targets. This service includes analysis by security experts, helping developers to stay ahead of potential threats and maintain the integrity and confidentiality of their devices.
Managing the security lifecycle of IoT devices, from production to deployment, can be complex. Kudelski IoT offers in-field provisioning services that automate the assignment of keys and certificates to IoT devices. This zero-touch provisioning process reduces human error, speeds up production, and ensures trust throughout the device’s lifecycle. The keySTREAM™ platform allows for easy management and monitoring of devices, providing scalability and security from initial setup through end-of-life
Kudelski IoT’s expertise spans various sectors, including semiconductors, medical devices, automotive cybersecurity, and more. For the automotive industry, Kudelski IoT provides tailored security measures that comply with the latest standards like ISO/SAE 21434. Their solutions help manufacturers protect against potential threats and ensure the safety and security of connected vehicles. In the medical devices sector, Kudelski IoT facilitates compliance with stringent regulations such as the FDA's cybersecurity guidelines and the EU's Medical Device Regulation (MDR). Their end-to-end solutions help companies build, deliver, and sustain their IoT businesses by providing tailored security assessments, design and architecture services, and continuous monitoring. By leveraging Kudelski IoT’s specialized knowledge and resources, developers can ensure that their products meet the highest security standards, comply with evolving regulations, and differentiate themselves in the market.
