How to protect IoT devices during manufacturing stage with Secure Provisioning

The challenges and risks of IoT, The need for a Secure by Design approach, Guideline and solutions to mitigate the risks, and Real world examples.

The Internet of Things (IoT) is transforming our homes, cars, hospitals, businesses and public spaces – mostly for the better – but without suitable precautions (security, privacy) IoT devices can be an attractive target for malicious actors and cyberattacks.

When embarking on an IoT project, or designing a new connected device or product, it’s important to factor in security early on. The potential impact of an IoT security breach is forcing a suitable security model from the design and manufacturing phase which supports secure production; the secure provisioning of root keys and certificates at the time of manufacturing, secure mastering, and a foundation for secure updates.
