SAM Seamless Network,
announced it has joined Prpl Foundation, an open-source community-driven consortium
with a focus on enabling the security and interoperability of embedded
devices for the IoT and smart society of the future. The membership in Prpl

software functionalities for broadband devices.
SAM Seamless Network was founded by former cyber specialists in the Israeli
army, who served in the most elite units, including 8200. The Company
completed a $12m Series A financing round in November 2018 led by Intel
Capital, with participation from ADT Inc. (NYSE: ADT), Dave Dewalt’s
NightDragon, and Blumberg Capital. SAM’s cybersecurity software is the
first-field proven solution to protect local area networks and all of their
connected devices directly at the source of entry at the ISPs via the
router.
