And thanks to our new partnership with F-Secure, we´re pleased to add SENSE connected home security solution capabilities to our CPE App Store.”
SENSE protects every single connected device in the home including smart TVs, gaming consoles, baby monitors, and other devices unable to run traditional security software against cyber threats with functionalities embedded in Wi‑Fi routers.
“We’re thrilled to see KAON choose F-Secure as cyber security partner in their Quantum platform a platform that provides router manufacturers with flexibility and drives a wider supply of value-added services across the ecosystem,” says Dmitri Vellikok, F-Secure vice president, network security.
