Data I/O and DigiCert Partner to Enable DigiCert Certificate Signing Services via Data I/O’s SentriX® Secure Provisioning ...
18 September 2018 - 10:00PM
Enables PKI Certificate Deployment in Hardware
Based Secure Elements and Secure MicroControllers
Data I/O Corporation (NASDAQ: DAIO), a leading global provider of
advanced data programming and security provisioning solutions for
flash-memory, flash based microcontrollers, secure elements and
authentication ICs and DigiCert, the world’s leading provider of
scalable PKI solutions for identity and encryption, today announced
the companies are partnering to enable secure provisioning of
semiconductor devices for IoT applications on Data I/O’s SentriX
Secure Provisioning System.
With the market for secure elements and secure microcontrollers
used in IoT applications anticipated to grow to 4 billion units
over the next 5 years, the need for OEMs to design security into
their products has never been greater. This growth is reflective of
a broader industry trend towards hardware based security using
secure elements or secure microcontrollers for key storage with
cloud access and software-based certificate distribution.
DigiCert’s IoT PKI services, featuring certificate-based
authentication built to scale for any-sized deployment from the
world’s leading and largest certificate provider for global
business, work in conjunction with Data I/O’s SentriX Secure
Provisioning System to enable IoT device OEMs of any size and
volume.
“Security has long been critical for the success of IoT
applications. Certificate based authentication, encryption and
integrity between devices form the foundation for a secure IoT
ecosystem,” said Mike Nelson, vice president of IoT security at
DigiCert. “Our collaboration with Data I/O enables any OEM,
regardless of size, volume or in-house security expertise to
provision certificates during manufacturing.”
“The need to secure IoT devices is no longer a debatable point.
OEMs of any size are challenged with how to design and produce
secure devices. Data I/O is excited to collaborate with DigiCert to
provide OEMs a reliable method to obtain, design-in and provision
certificates into a wide array of secure ICs,” said Anthony
Ambrose, President and CEO of Data I/O. “Data I/O’s SentriX
Security Provisioning Platform provides an end-to-end security
provisioning solution that is equally suited for provisioning one
device or millions of devices.”
About SentriXThe SentriX Platform provides a
trusted, secured and cost-effective provisioning solution for OEMs
of any size to embed a hardware-based root of trust in silicon
during the manufacturing flow for their IoT products. This
process of provisioning silicon devices enables OEMs to add their
own unique identity which is cryptographically tied to an embedded
hardware based root-of-trust and can prevent unauthorized firmware
from executing on the device. An IoT product secured in this
way also enables OEMs to provide secure updates to their products
in the field. Hardware based security enabled by the SentriX
system also ensures supply chain integrity during the manufacturing
process. Unauthorized production and cloning are prevented
with this approach. The SentriX Platform provides a secure
manufacturing process for a wide variety of secure semiconductor
devices.
