The current approach to security management for IoT devices is to repurpose legacy security management systems. While this approach may work for some IoT gateways and large IoT devices, it does not scale to the smallest IoT devices, especially small battery-powered edge devices and sensor solutions.
Floodgate Security Manager is designed to provide the management services required by all IoT devices, including small, battery-powered, and mobile devices, without the overhead and complexity of traditional enterprise security management systems. This software suite helps protect IoT and embedded devices against cyber attacks. It can be operated as either an on premise or a cloud-based security manager.
It provides device status monitoring, security policy management, command audit logging, and security event logging and reporting for devices running Icon Labs’ Floodgate Agent or other lightweight IoT management protocols such as COAP and MQTT. Floodgate Security Manager provides comprehensive reporting and auditing capabilities to help achieve EDSA Certification, ISA/IEC 62443 Compliance, and/or compliance with the NIST Cybersecurity framework.
“With the IoT growing dramatically, it’s only a matter of time before hackers turn more attention toward embedded systems with limited onboard security resources,” said Steve Hoffenberg, a director at industry analyst firm VDC Research. “New security technologies are needed not only to protect IoT device functionality and data, but also to protect conventional IT and the cloud assets to which the embedded systems are connected.”
