The coolest 5 companies in the field of IoT security

Recently, CRN selected five of the coolest (Coolest) companies in the Internet of Things security in the latest issue of the magazine.

CRN (Computer Reseller News) is a world-renowned business magazine with an earliest history dating back to 1982. According to the usual practice, at the end of each year, they will invite authoritative people to form a jury to select outstanding innovators in the industry and provide opinions for channel manufacturers and users. Each year, CRN's various lists have become one of the important indicators to measure the influence of a company's industry.

BasTIlle

Bastille

BasTIlle is a startup based in Atlanta, USA, specializing in wireless network security and the industry's first to offer enterprise-class wireless network security detection and assurance.

According to BasTIlle's official website, users will be able to detect all wireless network signals in the frequency range from 60MHz to 6GHz through their patent-pending security sensors and supporting software (this covers WiFi, cellular and other IoT areas). The wireless communication protocol), then the data is aggregated into the supporting software for analysis, and finally a visual analysis result is presented to the user. Users will be able to clearly see from the chart which nodes are transmitting data and which nodes have security threats.

In July, it was BasTIlle that discovered the Keysniffer vulnerability that is common in low-end wireless keyboards. Hackers can use this vulnerability to remotely intercept user tapping results 76 meters away. According to reports, there are as many as eight wireless keyboard manufacturers affected by this vulnerability in the United States.

ForeScout

ForeScout

ForeScout is a well-known agentless network security startup in the industry. On the official website, they boldly wrote their motto: "Don't just connect the dots. Control them." Clearly, they are a company that does network node control.

ForeScout's star product is a network security solution called CounterACT, which can be either a hardware device with security monitoring capabilities or a security detection software installed on existing devices. According to the official website, CounterACT can detect and control the networking behavior of mobile phones, computers and other various intelligent hardware products based on the running status of the device or user settings without installing a security agent. It can also automatically evaluate malicious attacks. Network nodes and fix high-risk vulnerabilities.

In 2015, ForeScout achieved rapid growth through partnerships with companies such as FireEye, IBM, and Intel Security, with annual revenues reaching $125 million. In early 2016, led by Wellington Management Company LLP, ForeScout received a round of $76 million in financing, which allowed the company to formally enter the ranks of global startups with a market capitalization of more than $1 billion. It is worth mentioning that in just one and a half years, the company achieved a triple of market value and eventually crossed over $1 billion.

GlobalSign

GlobalSign

Founded in 1996 and headquartered in Boston, GlobalSign is principally engaged in the development of public key infrastructure and access management/control technologies. It is a world-renowned certificate authority and SSL digital certificate provider.

Under the tide of the Internet of Things, GlobalSign has integrated the development of public key infrastructure and access control, and launched a unified identity management platform (Identity Management Platform). According to GlobalSign, the platform can target a growing number of access devices in the Internet of Things, leveraging its existing identity management infrastructure to enable large-scale identity authentication and security management, including context-based identity authorization and access control.

At the same time, GlobalSign also developed a channel program for third-party partners last year, so that other vendors can directly use GlobalSign's public key infrastructure and access management technology to ensure the information security of IoT devices.

Tempered Networks

Tempered Networks

Founded in 2014 and headquartered in Seattle, Tempered Networks initially focused on IoT security and has now expanded its product line to create a “unified security network”.

Tempered Networks' star product is a hardware-and-software network deployment solution, the Identity-Defined Network (IDN), which allows enterprise users to implement a geographically fragmented WAN through network segmentation technology to meet the transmission needs of traditional networks. On the other hand, it also weakens the security threats of network hackers and simplifies the configuration of network infrastructure. Currently, this solution has been adopted by many industries such as oil, natural gas, public utilities and manufacturing.

In August of this year, Tempered Networks announced a $10 million Series B round of financing, and by that time, the company's total financing amounted to $32 million. According to Jeff Hussey, co-founder and CEO of the company, they plan to use these investments to strengthen product development and will actively seek opportunities for expansion in overseas markets.

Webroot

Webroot

Founded in 1997, Webroot is headquartered in Colorado, USA, and provides network security cloud services and software solutions for individual and enterprise users.

Webroot proposes BrightCloud intelligent security analysis cloud service for gateway devices with the most bearer connections in the Internet of Things and the most vulnerable to security problems. According to the official website, this technology utilizes machine learning algorithms to analyze the location and manner of new attacks and avoid them based on thousands of cyber hacking incidents that have occurred worldwide. For inbound traffic, BrightCloud can intelligently intercept and accurately analyze dynamically changing malicious source IPs. For outbound traffic, BrightCloud has the flexibility to adjust the network connection between the gateway and the smart device to ensure that the necessary handshake process is performed before accessing the data.

In September of this year, Webroot just acquired CyberFlow, a machine learning company, to strengthen its strength in the AI ​​security field.

to sum up

According to market research firm IDC, the global IoT market is expected to grow to $1.7 trillion in 2020, and the number of connected devices will reach 20 billion. Faced with such a large market size and networked devices, the problems of the future network security category will become increasingly complicated. In order to avoid the recurrence of vicious incidents like the previous US network disconnection, the market needs more companies to join the network security business, using the technology itself as the above five companies to protect the progress of technology.
