Thales ProtectServer HSMs Used as a Root-of-Trust for an IoST (Internet of Secure Things) Platform - Case Study

The Internet of Things (IoT) is rapidly expanding. During 2022, the number of IoT devices in the world surpassed 30 billion.¹

This expansion led to an increase in the number of cyber-attacks targeting IoT devices. To adequately benefit from new business models enabled by the shift to IoT, businesses must ensure they incorporate the appropriate security requirements. One of these requirements is securely managing the keys used for data encryption, authentication, and other tasks. Key management can be quite complex and challenging to implement, into existing technology / IoT systems, and requires technical expertise.
