A Milestone for securing the Internet of Things: Infineon welcomes introduction of a voluntary U.S. IoT security label.

 

Today, U.S. Deputy National Security Advisor Anne Neuberger, Chairwoman of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Jessica Rosenworcel, and Laurie Locascio, Director of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) unveiled the U.S. national IoT security label at the White House.




Infineon Technologies AG supports this action to address the growing need for IoT security. The new label supports the IoT security requirements under NISTIR 8425, which resulted from an Executive Order to improve the nation’s cybersecurity. This label will recognize products that meet these requirements by permitting them to display a U.S. government label and be listed in a registry indicating that these products meet U.S. cybersecurity standards.

“As a leading provider of semiconductors for security and IoT devices, Infineon welcomes the step the U.S. government has made and fully supports programs to boost cybersecurity for the Internet of Things. The U.S. label is a significant milestone towards strong global cybersecurity standards. We believe the implementation of this program will empower consumers and further boost the adoption of IoT products in the U.S. and beyond.”

Infineon semiconductors provide a secured foundation for many IoT devices. To demonstrate how easily Infineon products can be used to build secured IoT devices, Infineon’s IoT development kit (CY8CKIT-062S2-43012) will seek to obtain the U.S. national label. Certification of this development kit will help our customers to create IoT products that are compliant with the U.S. national label.

Infineon was involved in the development of the IoT label program through its participation as a member of the Connectivity Standards Alliance (CSA). The U.S. cybersecurity guidelines are closely aligned with several CSA standards, including the Matter standard. Matter provides device manufacturers with a secured communication standard for a wide range of smart home applications and thus improves connectivity between smart devices from different manufacturers. CSA’s Product Security effort (chaired by Infineon) will certify that IoT devices meet global security requirements, including those used by the U.S. national label. Together, these standards move the IoT to a higher level of interoperability and security.

IoT Deals and Partnerships: Amazon Sidewalk, Vodafone, Microsoft and More.

 From Amazon Sidewalk’s deployment of Arrive’s smart mailboxes to Vodafone’s Web3 services alongside Aventus and Microsoft Azure’s cloud management tool with Hitachi Vantara, here are some of the latest deals and partnerships from the IoT industry.



Amazon Sidewalk Integrates Arrive Smart Mailboxes

Arrive has announced the successful integration of its smart mailboxes with Amazon Sidewalk, a community-wide network used by devices such as Amazon Echo and Ring security cameras.

Arrive said it plans to integrate the new technology in its devices, which are currently in mass productionand set for distribution in the next couple of months.

The smart mailbox service alerts users when they have a delivery and also provides an emergency alert system for security capabilities. 

“Our Mailbox as a Service (MaaS) gives you every delivery option you can imagine as it ensures package safety but also provides an emergency alert system and offers a host of other applications like using our camera to track pets and packages and serving as a hub to connect disparate smart devices,” said Dan O’Toole, Arrive’s CEO. “Mailboxes are everywhere, and our smart mailbox offers so many additional benefits than the traditional box-on-a-pole unit. Adding this capability is a value add that will make a huge difference to people whether it’s alerts to human safety or mechanical issues or just peace of mind.”

Adopting guidance from the US National Cybersecurity Strategy to secure the Internet of Things.

 The recently published United States National Cybersecurity Strategy warns that many popular Internet of Things (IoT) devices are not sufficiently secure to protect against many of today’s common cybersecurity threats.1 The strategy also cautions that many of these IoT devices.


Microsoft’s IoT security commitments 

While customers are familiar with our approach to Windows PC and server security, many are unaware that Microsoft has taken similar steps to strengthen the security of business-critical systems and the networks that enclose them, including vulnerable and unmanaged IoT and OT endpoints. Microsoft often detects a wide range of threats targeting IoT devices, including sophisticated malware that enables attackers to target compromised devices using botnets3 or compromised routers,4 and a malicious form of cryptomining called cryptojacking.5 This blog post details Microsoft’s efforts to help partners create IoT solutions with strong security, thereby supporting initiatives outlined in the new National Cybersecurity Strategy and other US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) initiatives.

Developing and deploying software products that are secure by design and default is both a challenging and costly endeavor. According to recent guidance from the CISA, Secure-by-Design requires significant resources to incorporate security functions at each layer of the product development process.6 To maximize effectiveness, this approach needs to be integrated into a product’s design from the onset and cannot always be “bolted on” later.

Security by design and default is an enduring priority at Microsoft. In 2021, we committed to investing USD100 billion to advance our security solutions over five years (approximately USD20 billion per year) and today we employ more than 8,000 security professionals.7 One result of these investments is Windows 11, our most secure version of Windows yet. At Microsoft, we have a great deal of experience around security by design and default and have strived to implement best practices into our products and programs to assist partners who combine hardware, innovative functionality, online services, and operating systems (OS) to produce and maintain IoT solutions with robust security.

Applying Zero Trust to IoT

Instead of believing everything behind the corporate firewall is safe, the Zero Trust model assumes breach and verifies each request as though it originated from an uncontrolled network. Regardless of where the request originates or what resource it accesses, the Zero Trust model teaches us to “never trust, always verify.” A Zero Trust approach should extend throughout the entire digital estate and serve as an integrated security philosophy and end-to-end strategy.

Coming soon: cloud-native IoT non-terrestrial network connectivity anywhere.

                                              Soracom has partnered with non-terrestrial network (NTN) service operator Skylo Technologies, giving customers building IoT solutions and M2M devices access to Skylo's direct-to-device 3GPP NTN connectivity, along with the advanced capability of Soracom’s fully-virtualised cellular platform.


The combination of NTN-based NB-IoT connectivity and cloud-based IoT network management represents the next generation of IoT connectivity: highly available, highly affordable, ubiquitous, and deeply integrated with the hyperscale cloud platforms that serve as the backbone of today’s IoT.

Soracom’s fully virtualised global platform provides full MVNO capability paired with powerful connectivity management tools.

Skylo's satellite NTN lets chipsets, modems, modules, and devices designed for terrestrial networks to connect via existing satellites using the global 3GPP Release 17 standard.

While the network is grounded in 3GPP specifications, much of the development of the network operates on what Skylo refers to as the “Standards Plus” approach.

Skylo’s engineers add additional technical specifications to improve the functionality, interoperability, and ubiquity of the satellite-based network over and above the 3GPP standards, delivering an exceptional user experience.

In combining Soracom protocol conversion and authentication offloading features, the customer can also minimise the amount of data transmitted over the satellite link while maintaining integration with a cloud service of their choice.

"Combining breakthrough NTN NB-IoT network, we can enable customers to add satellite coverage to their existing hardware with minimal data overhead for hyperscaler cloud integrations," said Kenta Yasukawa, CTO and Co-Founder of Soracom.

On the partnership, Dr. Andrew Nuttall, CTO and Co-Founder of Skylo, says the aim is to empower businesses and industries to unlock the full potential of IoT, regardless of their location or infrastructure constraints, enabling real-time data access, monitoring, and control in areas not currently served by cellular connectivity.”
