With the projected growth of 55.7 billion connected devices by the year 2025 — spanning consumer electronics, healthcare equipment, industrial systems, and more — the threat landscape grows more diverse and complex each day.
The scale of this interconnected ecosystem also amplifies compliance issues, as organisations struggle to adhere to stringent security standards and regulations across diverse device types, environments, and borders.
To effectively mitigate these risks, organisations need a comprehensive way to manage and secure the vast array of devices in various stages of the lifecycle while safeguarding data, privacy, and operational continuity in the face of evolving threats.
The new Device Trust Manager from DigiCert addresses the critical needs of device manufacturers for an integrated and scalable solution to secure IoT devices, manage complex compliance requirements, and ensure operational and device integrity amidst growing threats targeting devices.
“With Device Trust Manager, DigiCert is reinforcing its commitment to digital trust in the rapidly expanding IoT landscape,” said Deepika Chauhan, chief product officer for DigiCert.
He asserts that Device Trust Manager checks all the IoT boxes, except the one labelled ‘Ship and Pray.'”
DigiCert Device Trust Manager prioritises privacy, consumer safety, and business continuity via:
Enhanced compliance: Simplifies adherence to international regulations, supporting rigorous compliance demands with detailed Software Bill of Materials (SBOMs), real-time monitoring, and secure provisioning to maintain device integrity throughout the lifecycle.
Operational efficiency: Automates security processes, enabling quicker device deployment with features like over-the-air (OTA) updates and zero-touch provisioning.
Risk mitigation: Improves anomaly detection capabilities to protect against downtime and data breaches.
Scalable security: Easily scales from small to large deployments, adapting to various device ecosystems.
