WISeKey International Holding Ltd have collaborated with IBM to secure the Internet of Things (IoT) using WISeKey’s leading technology. The solution takes care of IBM Watson IoT Platform, by adding extended capabilities to secure IoT devices and the management thereof from a central location.
The integrated solution provides enhanced security of sensitive data exchanged between devices across the IoT networks. By doing so, customers benefit from an increased trust in the data handled by their application, and a reduced risk of revenue loss due to cyber-attacks of all kinds thus leverage a greater value of their business.
