Cybertrust "Secure IoT Platform"
The structure that enables IoT device identification / authentication and secure collection / management of data.
With the advent of the IoT society there are now multiple end-point devices connected to the network.
These IoT devices will have various usage models, and with the restriction on the device resources it will often be difficult to introduce any security measures.
There have been countless cyber-attacks against the vulnerabilities of Web Cameras and Routers where the IoT devices are hijacked and used as a platform for DDos attacks,requiring attention by society as a whole.
During Aug. 2017, the US government announced the strengthening of Cyber Security for major Federal Network Infrastructure by ascertaining the vulnerability of IoT devices.
In 2017, a health care company announced a voluntary recall of some pacemakers to patch cybersecurity vulnerabilities that were acknowledged by FDA and the Department of Homeland Security's Industrial Control Systems Cyber Emergency Response Team.
As from the actual incidents, an end-to-end solution for IoT Security is becoming an immediate requirement for life-cycle management.
Resolving security issues with "Secure IoT platform®"

What is a "Secure IoT platform®"
The Secure IoT Platform® will provide authentication environment that will protect the IoT end-devices from Cyber attacks.
The Secure IoT Platform is a solution that allows users to manage the security status of IoT devices throughout their lifecycle from the semiconductor design to the disposal process stage, utilizing technology from the Rambus CryptoManagerâ„¢ Platform, including the IoT Security Service.
Secure IoT Platform makes it possible to manage IoT devices with high-level of security, and it will also enable to manage user(s) themselves by chronicling their activities.
In addition, OTA * can be securely seriviced for IoT devices which have longer life cycles than PCs, smartphones etc.
* OTA is an abbreviation for Over-The-Air, which is to update OS / applications, synchronize data, manage terminals, etc. by wireless networks such as Wi-Fi.
