NanoLock Management of Things Platform and
Micron® Authenta™ Technology to Deliver Unified Approach for
Securing Smart Cities, Automotive and Industrial Gateways
NanoLock Security, a leading management and security
provider for IoT and connected devices, today announced that it is
collaborating with Micron Technology, Inc. (Nasdaq: MU), an
industry leader in innovative memory and storage solutions, to
provide a Flash-to-Cloud management solution for security of
Internet of Things (IoT) and connected devices.
The combined solutions comprised of NanoLock’s Management of
Things platform (MoT) and Micron’s Authenta™-enabled flash memory
will provide organizations the ability to manage, securely update
and protect IoT devices, regardless of their computation power or
operating system requirements. Operators and OEMs can leverage
standard silicon trust anchors in flash memory to enhance firmware
authentication and integrity of IoT devices to achieve additional
revenue opportunities.
“Managing and protecting IoT devices are among the biggest
challenges and barriers to deploying IoT and realizing business
value from those deployments,” said Amit Gattani, senior director
of segment marketing for Micron’s Embedded Business Unit.
“NanoLock’s technology complements our Authenta-enabled flash
memory solution by providing embedded security at the device level
and extending that security to the cloud. It also opens the door to
creating a new ROI-driven approach for managing and protecting
millions of new devices.”
The combined solutions provide a significant value proposition
to operators, IoT service providers and enterprises by minimizing
the complexity and accelerating the time-to-market of IoT devices
based on silicon-level cryptographic roots of trust in standard
flash memory components. Extending this trust to the NanoLock MoT
and FOTALock management platforms enables much richer device-level
protection and makes enterprise grade management much more
affordable. The resulting services will enable service providers
the ability to now trust a broadened ecosystem of IoT devices much
sooner while protecting and managing fleets of devices in a much
more unified ecosystem.
The NanoLock and Micron Authenta technology solution will be
based on a Flash-to-Cloud trustworthiness model that is quickly
gaining in market acceptance due to the simplicity and high
integrity derived from single storage silicon – standard flash
memory -- providing critical health and protection schemes for code
and critical data. Users will be able to easily register, provision
and provide advanced services like firmware-over-the-air updates
(FOTA), all verified in a silicon root of trust. Integrated into
NanoLock’s Flash-to-Cloud platform, Authenta technology allows
device makers to design with standard flash memory and maintain
backward compatibility. It enables mutual protection from the
production line through the device’s end of life, while consuming
virtually zero computing and power resources.
“Partnering with Micron emphasizes the universal need for
trusted management with ironclad security in IoT devices,” said
Yoni Kahana, VP Customers, NanoLock. “A secure channel between end
devices and the cloud, and the ability to seamlessly manage that
channel simplifies IoT deployments and simultaneously provides a
revenue stream for customers.”
NanoLock and Micron are currently integrating the Authenta
security framework with NanoLock’s MoT and FOTALock platforms to
enable a fully compatible end-to-end solution. This unified IoT
security and management solution will be commercially available in
2019.
