Building trust into every sensor and field device
Smart sensors and field devices are becoming an essential part of connected industrial environments. From monitoring equipment and environmental conditions to collecting operational data, these devices provide the information organisations rely on to manage and automate their operations.
Often deployed remotely and operating for many years, these devices need to remain trusted throughout their operational lifetime.
A hardware-rooted identity provides every sensor and field device with a unique, immutable identity, enabling trusted authentication and lifecycle integrity from manufacturing through deployment and operation.
Designed for long-life field deployments
Sensors and field devices are often deployed for many years in remote or difficult-to-access environments. Replacing or physically maintaining these devices may be costly or impractical, making long-term cybersecurity essential.
Building security into devices from the start helps organisations maintain trusted operations throughout the device lifecycle without relying solely on software-based security measures.
Every field device needs a trusted identity
Every sensor and field device should be uniquely identifiable throughout its operational lifetime. Trusted device identity enables secure authentication, helping organisations verify that devices connecting to their systems are genuine and authorised.
As the number of connected endpoints grows, establishing trust at the hardware level strengthens security across distributed IoT environments.
Protect the integrity of device data
Operational systems depend on data collected by sensors and field devices. If the identity of the device generating that data cannot be trusted, the integrity of the information it provides may also be called into question.
Hardware-rooted device identity helps organisations authenticate the source of operational data and establish trust from the device into the connected system.
Secure devices throughout their lifecycle
Sensors and field devices may require firmware updates, maintenance or reconfiguration long after they have been deployed. Maintaining device integrity throughout these changes is essential to long-term security.
A hardware-rooted approach supports secure authentication and firmware integrity throughout the operational lifetime of connected devices.
