DigiCert has announced the advancement of its IoT security offering with the introduction of DigiCert Device Trust Manager. This new solution is designed to protect IoT devices throughout their entire lifecycle. Device Trust Manager meets the critical needs of device manufacturers by providing an integrated and scalable solution to secure IoT devices, manage complex compliance requirements, and ensure operational and device integrity amidst increasing threats.
With an anticipated growth to 55.7 billion connected devices by 2025 — including consumer electronics, healthcare equipment, industrial systems, and more — the threat landscape is becoming increasingly diverse and complex. The scale of this interconnected ecosystem also amplifies compliance challenges, as organisations strive to meet stringent security standards and regulations across various device types, environments, and borders. To effectively mitigate these risks, organisations require a comprehensive approach to manage and secure the vast array of devices at different lifecycle stages, while safeguarding data, privacy, and operational continuity in the face of evolving threats.
“With Device Trust Manager, DigiCert is reinforcing its commitment to digital trust in the rapidly expanding IoT landscape,” said Deepika Chauhan, Chief Product Officer, DigiCert. “We’re excited to introduce this integrated platform to new and existing customers, transforming IoT device security with comprehensive protection throughout the device lifecycle. Device Trust Manager checks all the IoT boxes, except the one labelled ‘Ship and Pray.'”
DigiCert Device Trust Manager offers unparalleled security for every stage of the IoT device lifecycle, from inception to decommissioning, ensuring compliance while enhancing operational efficiency. The solution prioritises privacy, consumer safety, and business continuity through:
- Enhanced Compliance: Simplifies adherence to international regulations, supporting rigorous compliance demands with detailed SBOMs (Software Bill of Materials), real-time monitoring, and secure provisioning to maintain device integrity throughout the lifecycle
- Operational Efficiency: Automates security processes, enabling faster device deployment with features such as over-the-air (OTA) updates and zero-touch provisioning
- Risk Mitigation: Improves anomaly detection capabilities to protect against downtime and data breaches
- Scalable Security: Easily scales from small to large deployments, adapting to various device ecosystems
“The latest solution from DigiCert, built upon the already impressive DigiCert One platform, shows continued innovation,” said Sam Gabbay, President, TUO Accessories. “Once again, DigiCert is leading the way by showing leadership, commitment to IoT security and especially their customer experience by thinking 10 steps ahead for them. I am proud to be a DigiCert customer and am excited to use Device Trust Manager, which shows promise to improve an already streamlined workflow.”
