IoT – A Hackers Doorway to Data
We live in the age of Internet of Everything. From smart meters and toys to medical and agricultural equipment – almost everything is connected to the internet. IoT devices are transferring data and communications to endpoints such as mobile devices, computers, and servers keeping us all connected. So, what is the danger and why would anyone want data about the movement of cows in a field?
While IoT devices drive efficiency through connectivity, they also act as a doorway into your system. If that door is not protected, your data is vulnerable to a potentially devastating cyberattack. For example, theft of sensitive information, opportunity to deploy ransomware attacks, company downtime or even interruptions to agricultural food production. The consequences are endless and can affect customers as well as businesses.
What’s the solution? It all starts with strong device identity.
But what does that mean?
By offering every “thing” a unique identity, devices can be authenticated when they come online. This verified, encrypted and unique identity allows secure communication between other devices, services and users. To put it simply, we’re locking the door to create trust in IoT.
GlobalSign are the experts in identity and trust and our next-generation IoT Identity Platform delivers everything you need for device identity lifecycle management; from design and manufacturing, through deployment, management and sunsetting. Provision and secure device identities with a purpose-built, Public Key Infrastructure-based platform for exceptional security. Use GlobalSign to make the Internet of Everything secure.
