Integrated solution architecture and design are key to IoT initiative success. We offer end-to-end IoT services, addressing all aspects of an IoT solution to simplify the deployment process, managed at scale with optimal cost structures.

Lifecycle Management

Proactive device management includes solutions such as policy/procedure management, device updates, and identity and access management. Our IoT connectivity management solution affords visibility for device and connectivity monitoring and optimization.

Device Security

Comprehensive device security services include offensive security testing to identify device vulnerabilities, threat modeling to mitigate risks, and additional services such as firmware analysis, device tear-down, and reverse engineering.

Analytics and Insights

IoT value is created by collecting new data streams and unlocking hidden insights. Our data-driven solution framework incorporates data architecture early and often, enabling advanced capabilities such as edge computing and artificial intelligence.

A complete IoT lifecycle approach, creating an IoT security posture that reliably enables IoT innovation and protects the network from existing and unknown threats. The lifecycle approach encompasses Six critical stages of IoT security.

Enabling Secure IoT Solutions

The Internet of Things refers to connected devices that can “talk” to other devices without human interaction. Using a combination of sensors and connectivity technology such as Bluetooth, WiFi, cellular networks, and others, information regarding people and processes is shared and updated.

Combined with other capabilities such as data storage, analytics, visualization tools, and security, connected devices impact how all industries, governments, and consumers interact with the physical world.

Chances are you use connected devices every day and may not even be conscious that these are IoT devices. Those who have grown up in the digital world often expect connectivity and the benefits it provides in our day-to-day activities. But as business usage of IoT expands, organizations are seeing increased benefits, including:

Automated and efficient processes
Access to live, updated data
Better utilization of human resources and increased productivity
Enhanced asset utilization
Cost savings
Innovation through new service offerings and capabilities

Explore limitless opportunities to innovate, gain a competitive advantage, and realize operational efficiencies

Challenges in Implementing IoT

The IoT provides organizations with limitless opportunities to innovate, gain a competitive advantage, and realize operational efficiencies. As organizations pursue digital transformation by employing IoT devices, the security and privacy of these solutions should be top of mind—but is often overlooked or not considered. We are seeing a significant increase in organizations that:

Do not have an inventory of current assets being utilized in their organization with IoT capabilities
Do not have the capability to identify potential threats or monitor suspicious traffic on these devices
Do not have a plan, nor the skills and ability to update IoT devices if a security vulnerability is identified
Do not have controls in place to manage security and risks that IoT introduces to an organization
Do not have a technology or business resiliency plan
Integrate IoT with other technologies to take advantage of other capabilities, including blockchain, artificial intelligence, machine learning, robotic process automation, cloud, and enterprise data analytics.
