The internet of things (IoT) has a market value of $662 billion (€605.73 billion) today. By 2030, it is expected to grow to $3.35 trillion (€3.07 trillion). The seamless, connected experience that IoT devices offer is clearly attractive to consumers, but it also presents an increasingly attractive market that bad actors are only too willing

The Consumer Technology Association (CTA) has joined officials from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), the National Security Council (NSC) and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) for the launch of the US Cyber Trust Mark programme. This programme will give consumers more information about the cybersecurity of the Internet of Things (IoT)-connected products

Keysight Technologies, Inc., has announced support for the voluntary national standard for consumer internet of things (IoT) cybersecurity labeling programme unveiled by the Biden-Harris Administration at the White House. Known as the US Cyber Trust Mark, the IoT labeling programme outlines a set of cybersecurity standards devised by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)

Keyfactor, a security solution for modern enterprises, has announced launch of two new product updates, EJBCA 8.0 and SignServer 6.0. The updates bring significant advancements in post-quantum readiness and Internet of Things (IoT) security as organisations seek safeguards against the rising possibility of cyberattacks brought on by developments in and growth of both technologies.

We need labels. Personally, the presence of labels is absolutely crucial for my health. I need them to understand the nutritional content of the food I eat and determine how much insulin to take, says Mike Nelson, VP of digital trust, DigiCert.

WISeKey International Holding Ltd., a global cybersecurity, AI, blockchain, and semiconductors company, announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary SEALSQ Corp is offering countries the ability to develop their own semiconductors personalisation centres via a public private partnership. The objective of this initiative is to reduce dependency on semiconductors manufacturing and deployment of microchips.

Geneva, Switzerland – STMicroelectronics, a global semiconductor provider serving customers across the spectrum of electronics applications, has expanded its STM32 family of advanced microcontrollers (MCUs) with extra STM32U5 devices that raise performance while squeezing power consumption for longer runtimes and energy efficiency. The STM32U5 has also received NIST embedded random-number entropy source certification.

Munich, Germany – Infineon Technologies AG has announced that the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has selected the Ascon algorithm developed by Christoph Dobraunig, Maria Eichlseder, Florian Mendel and Martin Schlaeffer as an international standard for lightweight cryptography (LWC). The cryptographic scheme was selected in a multi-stage and multi-year selection process, in

The nation’s 16 critical infrastructure sectors rely on internet-connected devices and systems to deliver essential services, such as electricity and health care. These sectors face increasing cybersecurity threats an issue on our high risk list.

Geneva, Switzerland – WISeKey International Holding Ltd, a global cybersecurity, Blockchain and IoT company, announced advances in its “post-quantum” strategy designed to support a new grade of future-proof PKI services.

Technical standards organisation, GlobalPlatform has launched its free beta manufacturer usage description (MUD) File Service to simplify and secure IoT device network onboarding and management. The service helps manufacturers to easily share the intent, capabilities and requirements of their devices.

GlobalPlatform, the standard for secure digital services and devices, has launched IoTopia, which it describes as “a comprehensive framework for IoT security”.

To help oversee European Union (EU) General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) compliance and the company’s data protection strategy, People Power has named its chief scientist, John Teeter, as the company’s data protection officer (DPO).

The two providers in mission-critical (MC) communications, Sonim Technologies and Softil, jointly announce that they have combined their technologies enabling Sonim to roll out the world’s most rugged range of next generation LTE devices for first responders.

Developers of Industrial IoT (IIoT) and connected embedded systems can now design in an added level of trust while also bringing their products to market faster with the MAXQ1061 DeepCover® cryptographic controller from Maxim Integrated Products, Inc.

Alexandre Adomnicai, cryptography expert at Trusted Objects will give a presentation on his current research at the next NIST Lightweight Cryptography Workshop that will take place on October 17-18, 2016 at NIST (US National Institute of Standards and Technology) Headquarters, in Gaithersburg, Md., USA.
