Tern Plc (the "Company", or the "Group")
DA extends Microsoft Azure IoT hub security capabilities
Tern Plc (AIM:TERN), the investment company specialising in the Internet of
Things ("IoT"), notes today's announcement from Device Authority ("DA"), the
IoT security business in which Tern has a 56.8% holding.
DA has announced its support for Microsoft Azure IoT Hub following the
recent release of KeyScaler 5.8, a global leader in Identity and Access
Management for IoT. Combining these two technologies will allow customers to
take advantage of automated enterprise IoT security lifecycle management, as
well as KeyScaler's Delegated Security Management model, which provides
device provisioning with continued device lifecycle credential management.
Keyscaler is able to provide automated Public Key Infrastructure ("PKI")
certificate provisioning from both public and private certificate
authorities and integrates with Hardware Security Modules to ensure a robust
root of trust and maximum amount of security for key storage.
The support of DA's KeyScaler technology adds further value by allowing
enterprises to automate security policy enforcement, subsequently
eliminating several management issues of using PKI for IoT. The combination
of the two technologies also adds the benefits of both functionality and
audit, and logging for compliance purposes.
Tern CEO Al Sisto said:
"It is great to see DA supporting Microsoft Azure IoT in such a way to
enable a more secure and robust solution. Utilising DA's KeyScaler 5.8 in a
way which complements the capabilities of the Microsoft Azure IoT Hub allows
both technologies to grow together and improve customer experiences."
