Nexus Smart ID for IoT
Enable trust for the Internet of Things (IoT Platform)
Enable true end-to-end security and prevent cyber attacks against IoT applications by issuing trusted identities. These trusted identities secure the IoT applications with strong authentication of devices, people and servers, encrypted communication and proven data integrity.
Secure IoT with PKI-based identities
For any IoT application, it is crucial to protect data, user privacy, and safety. Breaches can harm production continuity and business processes, customers’ trust, and – worst of all – human health and life.
To enable true end-to-end security and prevent cyber attacks against IoT applications, a public-key infrastructure (PKI) can be used to issue certificate-based identities. These trusted identities secure the IoT applications with strong authentication of devices, people and servers, encrypted communication and proven data integrity.
