IoT security solutions

IoT security solutions enable enterprises to meet their key requirements, which help in securing their IoT devices.

These include identity access management, data encryption and tokenization, intrusion detection system/intrusion prevention system, device authentication and management, secure software and firmware update, secure communications, Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) lifecycle management, Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) protection, security analytics and others (virtual firewall and incidence response system).

Network security is a technique for securing networks from advanced threats by collecting and analyzing the different types of network security event information. It combines the multiple layers of defenses at the edge and in networks.

IoT is gaining traction across industries, due to its robust offerings. With the expanding reach of IoT, multiple end users and devices can be connected to networks.
