IoT Device Management (IDM) is a software platform that helps businesses manage their IoT devices, from identifying and tracking assets to automating operations. IDM features a wide range of features to help businesses manage their IoT devices. IoT device management platforms allow you to remotely control, monitor and update your entire fleet of IoT devices at scale.
The advent of connected devices has brought about significant change in the technology industry. We all accept that data is power – the more we know about our devices and users, the more effectively we can serve their needs. The integration of connected devices has transformed several industries, including healthcare, transportation, and manufacturing.
In the ever-changing world of IoT, early adopters of this technology, including many medical and manufacturing organizations, are finding that the devices they so heavily invested in are now less secure than ever. You might think that the only solution is to replace existing technology with new greenfield devices, but is there a way to extend the life of existing equipment, minimizing the cost of new technology and the overall impact your corporation has on the environment?
Have you ever typed in a website’s address and ended up somewhere completely different? Or received emails from what appears to be a familiar company, but with suspicious links that lead to unfamiliar pages? These scenarios may be the result of DNS spoofing, a type of cyber-attack that can leave your sensitive information vulnerable. In this blog post, we’ll dive into what DNS spoofing is, how it works, who is at risk, and most importantly – how you can prevent it.
The Internet of Things (IoT) is a network of interconnected physical objects that are embedded with different kinds of technology, such as sensors, processors, transceivers, or actuators. This technology allows IoT devices to collect and exchange data with each other over the internet or through dedicated wireless networks, enabling them to interact with the physical world in various ways. As the number of IoT devices continues to grow, so too does the need for proper security measures.
Rapid digitization means that organizations are now more connected than ever. Most organizations now host a combination of interconnected IT, OT, IoT and sometimes IoMT devices in their networks, which has increased their attack surface. Forescout’s data shows that around 24% of connected devices in every organization are no longer traditional IT.
The most recent White House announcement detailing the US National Cybersecurity Strategy puts forth some important priority objectives.
Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) is a set of policies, and procedures needed to create, manage, distribute, use, store, and revoke digital certificates. The purpose of PKI is to facilitate secure electronic communications by authenticating users and devices. Organizations that use PKI can be assured that their messages are confidential and tamper-proof because each message is encrypted with a unique key that only the intended recipient can decrypt.
Cybersecurity is a top priority for businesses, governments, and individuals alike. With the rise of cybercrime in recent years, it’s more important than ever to ensure that sensitive data is kept safe and secure. That’s where encryption comes in. Encryption is the process of encoding data so that only authorized users can access it. There are two main types of encryption: symmetric and asymmetric encryption.
According to a recent study, machine identities (IDs) are growing at twice the rate of human identities. To defend these machine identities in the IoT, privilege access management will be one of the most important areas of focus for businesses in the Internet of Things (IoT) space in 2023. As more and more devices are connected to the internet and can share data, it’s becoming increasingly important to make sure that only authorized users have access to sensitive information.
