September 2017 by Marc Jacob
Device Authority and MultiTech Systems, Inc. announce their technology partnership, which introduces robust security options for customers utilizing MultiConnect Conduit IoT gateways and MultiConnect rCell 100 Series routers.
The partnership provides existing and future customers with access to Device Authority’s KeyScaler Platform including automated, secure gateway registration and provisioning, credential management (PKI Certificates and Passwords) and, in the future, encrypted data protection during data transfer between gateways and the cloud.
KeyScaler uses unique patented Dynamic Device Key Generation (DDKG) technology and provides a strong root of trust, securing the MultiTech Conduit gateways’ identity and offers an automated approach for registering and authenticating gateways to KeyScaler. Data is encrypted from the gateway, in transit and persists encrypted at rest, defined and controlled by customer policy.
KeyScaler delivers automated provisioning, encryption and delivery of PKI certificates to each enabled device after device authentication. Through unique Automated Password Management technology, account passwords are automatically set and managed, including automatically changing default passwords.
