Bring secure products rapidly to market by using our expertise, experience and products.
Find out howWe are embedded system and IoT security engineers
Security is difficult. We make sure that your products stay secure even when there are unexpected problems, or they are under attack. We design IoT security into products, we implement security software and hardware, and we assess the security of products to ensure that your security cost-effectively meets your business requirements.
Security penetration testing, or pen testing, can be a useful but often misunderstood security test method, particularly by companies who are new to security, so what is a pen test, is it suitable for IoT/embedded products, and when should it be used?

Since the 1970’s, the explosion in computing, and our knowledge on how to secure it, has been driven by the mass-market manufacturing of general purpose semiconductor devices - but this is now changing and what will this change mean for security?

For our electronic devices, such as phones, to shrink, the electronic components used inside them also need to shrink and this has led to “chip-scale packaging” where the chip package is not much larger than the bare silicon die inside it - but how does this affect security?

We get a lot of companies who ask us to review the security of their product after they’ve designed it and are making plans to put it on to the market, but one of the things that scares us the most is when they ask, “I’ve got an IoT product based on a Rasperry Pi - how do I secure it?

A good source of random numbers is critical for many cryptographic operations including most current cryptographic communications protocols and in this article we’ll look at how they’re generated in modern system-on-chips, best practice for using them and how they can be attacked.

Hardware secure elements such as Microchip’s ATECC508A/ATECC608A, STMicroelectronics’s STSAFE-A100, Infineon’s Optiga or NXP’s A71CH are promoted as solutions for IoT security - but what do these devices do, how do they help and what are their limitations?
