Kigen enables businesses to reap the benefits of a secure IoT deployment

2020-12-07 00:45

Kigen has enabled 2 billion SIMs in IoT devices and has new state-of-the-art eSIM and integrated SIM deployments with leading chipset providers, module vendors and network operators.

As an independent but wholly-owned subsidiary of Arm, Kigen will focus on addressing device-maker demand for greater choice in affordable security for trusted IoT devices.

These gains will reduce the time it takes to deliver new IoT products, allowing companies to deploy advanced IoT solutions faster and more reliably.

Orange has recently proven the use of Kigen's GSMA IoT SAFE applet that simplifies how IoT Service Providers can establish strong trust between devices and clouds such as Orange's LiveObjects, Microsoft Azure IoT or AWS IoT. "To support the transformative applications that embedded AI and ML will enable for smart city infrastructure, healthcare and IoT endpoints, the devices powering those applications need to be built from ground up with high functional integration, deep security and ubiquitous cellular connectivity. Kigen's iSIM is a key enabler to deliver power-efficient edge computing solutions that scale across constrained to computing-intensive applications," said Reza Kazerounian, President and Co-Founder, Alif Semiconductor.

"5G will drive a massive expansion in the number of things connected, heralding a new generation of billions of Internet of Things devices. We have worked with Kigen to develop standards for eSIM and iSIM security capabilities. These standards will ensure"root of trust" end-to-end IoT reliability, in the same way that we have come to expect from the SIM for over 25 years," said Alex Sinclair, GSMA's Chief Technology Officer.
