WISeKey’s Subsidiary, SEALSQ Will Be
Showcasing a Unique Integrated Solution for Matter Smart Home
Devices at the Connectivity Standards Alliance (CSA) Member
Meeting, to be held from November 13 - 16 in Geneva
Geneva, Switzerland – November 6, 2023: WISeKey
International Holding Ltd. (“WISeKey”) (SIX: WIHN, NASDAQ: WKEY),
leader in cybersecurity, digital identity, and Internet of Things
(IoT) solutions operating as a holding company, today announced
that SEALSQ Corp (Nasdaq: LAES) (“SEALSQ”), its semiconductors
subsidiary, will be showcasing a unique integrated hardware and PKI
service offering for Internet of Things (IoT) devices adopting the
Matter standard at the next Alliance Member Meeting in Geneva,
scheduled to take place from November 13 - 16, 2023.
At the Meeting, SEALSQ will be showcasing its
latest secure element, the VaultIC292, specially designed for IoT
applications, that comes with a Provisioning-on-Package service to
pre-load the secure element with certificates ready for
authentication under the latest Matter 1.2 Protocol. The
Certificates can be issued and managed using INeS, a true
PKI-as-a-Service developed by SEALSQ and available from cloud or
on-premises. This remarkably efficient end-to-end solution should
enable SEALSQ to deliver the personalized chips to its customers
within a few weeks of lead time.
Acting as a true “Security One-Stop-Shop” with
this unique “Root to Chip” integrated offering on the market,
SEALSQ will help smart home device manufacturers to easily get
access to the growingly required “Matter” standard compliance and
ensure their products meet with the highest cyber security
standards, all under a very short time to market, reducing costs
and development complexity.
The US cybersecurity guidelines are closely
aligned with most standards from The Alliance, including Matter.
Indeed, Matter provides a common framework for device manufacturers
to ensure secure communication across a wide range of smart home
applications, thus improving connectivity and security between
smart devices from different manufacturers.
The White House invited The Alliance this summer
and unveiled the full details about their US Cybersecurity Labeling
Program for consumer IoT-connected device security. Both the CSA
and the Consumer Technology Association are promoting the
initiative, which will help consumers shop with confidence by
giving them an objective way to find connected devices with a
baseline level of security. The Alliance will certify that IoT
devices meet global security requirements, including those used by
the U.S. national label. Together, these standards move the IoT to
a higher level of interoperability and security.
SEALSQ will be leveraging WISeKey’s Root
Certificate Authority (CA), which has been approved by The Alliance
for Matter device attestation earlier this year and became one of
the very few Product Attestation Authorities (PAA).
“The Provisioning-on-Package service innovation
from SEALSQ comes a year following the release of the Matter
specification and is an excellent example of how use of the
standard has evolved quickly, adding advanced secure element
support with enhanced speed-to-market, while potentially lowering
costs for Smart Home device manufacturers,” said Chris LaPre, Head
of Technology, Connectivity Standards Alliance.
“The unique combination of SEALSQ’s PKI
services, and our on-chip or cloud-based provisioning services
together with the Matter Root-of-Trust PAA will help our customers
save time and money in achieving Matter security compliance,” said
Carlos Moreira, CEO and founder of SEALSQ and the WISeKey Group. He
added, “The growing adoption of Matter standard for the smart home
industry will greatly improve interoperability between devices and
security-by-design in the smart home industry, creating a more
efficient and safer experience for consumers. This is in full
alignment with SEALSQ’s mission to build a safer connected
world.”
Matter participants may gain the following
benefits by partnering with SEALSQ:
- Accelerate time to market in
achieving Matter compliance.
- Save money by avoiding the costs of
technology, maintenance, staffing and ongoing compliance.
- Enjoy flexible deployment options,
including on-premises, hosted or batch issuance.
- Simplify management of device
attestation certificates and product attestation intermediates
through SEALSQ INeS CMS Platform for IoT.
- Gain efficiencies using a scalable
platform to sign and secure device updates.
