Security News > 2021 > December > IoT SAFE — An Innovative Way to Secure IoT

There is a real silent IoT battle going on, and tens of thousands of IoT devices have already been compromised.

In order to give you an idea about the level of awareness that is on the rise, the Epidemiology Lab of Orange Cyberdefense provides us with some exciting and frightening figures: In 2019, for example, a vulnerable IoT device could be infected in less than 3 minutes, and in 2021, an IoT device is attacked on an average of 2814 times every single day by more than 100 different botnets trying to hijack it.

Finally, the IoT SAFE compatible device uses this data to establish a secure connection to the cloud using a mutually authenticated TLS session.

The IoT SAFE initiative has been presented at several conferences, including Java Card Forum, Global Platform, and Mobile IoT Summit.

During the seminars, use cases for implementing IoT SAFE were demonstrated and discussed in detail with the IoT community.

The vendor community should actively contribute to IoT security to boost the IoT market and increase business opportunities.
