Manufacturers can now embed certificates on chipsets prior to and during manufacturing, or directly to an edge device, for complete end-to-end device security.

IoT Device Manager is built on DigiCert ONE, which enables rapid, automated PKI deployment as a customer-managed, on-premises or cloud solution, or managed by DigiCert for any environment.

A challenge manufacturers face when implementing PKI is figuring out how to provision certificates to devices during the manufacturing and assembly process.

As manufacturers look for more device-level data and management capabilities, metadata on the device's characteristics - including serial numbers, batch numbers and digital certificate data - can be loaded into DigiCert IoT Device Manager to support full device management capabilities throughout a device's lifetime.

"Signing is a critical component of strong IoT security, and manufacturers are continually signing a variety of programming elements to ensure the integrity of interactions with their devices, and the data coming from it," said DigiCert SVP of Product Brian Trzupek.
