Summary of ARDUINO EMPOWERS EVERY USER TO MEET THE IOT SECURITY CHALLENGE
Arduino will include security best practices by default in Arduino IoT Cloud, making robust IoT security accessible to all users. The platform integrates secure communication via on-board secure elements (NXP EdgeLock SE050 or Microchip ATECCX08A) on Portenta H7, Nano 33 IoT, and MKR boards, uses the open-source ArduinoBearSSL library for TLS on constrained devices, and provides device certificate provisioning for MQTT client authentication.
Parts used in theArduino IoT Cloud security integration:
- Arduino Portenta H7
- Arduino Nano 33 IoT
- Arduino MKR family boards
- NXP EdgeLock SE050 secure element
- Microchip ATECCX08A secure element
- ArduinoBearSSL library
- Arduino IoT Cloud platform
- MQTT protocol (with device certificate provisioning)
Arduino, the leading IoT product development platform, has announced it will make security best practices achievable by anyone by including them as standard in the popular, easy-to-use Arduino IoT Cloud solution.
Specifically in the IoT space, operating without sophisticated security measures in place can put customers and their data at risk. Today, data, network, and device security remain the primary concern for 50% of organizations when adopting IoT. Arduino understands the risk of compromise and is constantly looking for ways to improve security in both its hardware and software, with a strong focus on “security by design”. Arduino IoT Cloud is a low-code platform that enables users to log, graph, and analyze their sensor data, trigger events, and automate their home or business.
You can sign up for Arduino IoT Cloud for free today and now automatically benefit from integrated security features including: Secure communication with Arduino Portenta H7, Arduino Nano 33 IoT and Arduino MKR family boards using their on-board secure elements (NXP EdgeLock SE050 or Microchip ATECCX08A) The open-source ArduinoBearSSL library for implementing the TLS protocol on devices A device certificate provisioning process to allow client authentication during MQTT sessions.
Many of today’s embedded devices still do not properly implement the full SSL/TLS stack. Optimized for constrained devices, ArduinoBearSSL aims at producing small code footprints and low RAM usage.
