Why “security by design” must be at the core of every IoT deployment

When it comes to the Internet of Things (IoT), good cybersecurity practices aren’t just an optional extra, like buying a fancy case for your new smartphone. They need to be built into devices from the ground-up as a fundamental building block for connected devices.

Few companies in the space understand this better than Eurotech, one of the most trusted and leading enablers of Industrial IoT solutions.

Recently Eurotech’s Edge Gateway ReliaGATE 10-14, integrated with the software platform ESF, joined a small, elite group of products to achieve both IEC 62443-4-2 and IEC 62443-4-1 cybersecurity certifications. In doing so, it provides a simple and safe foundation to simplify IoT connectivity, as well as enable computing and AI deployment on the network Edge.

Paul Chawla, CEO of Eurotech, spoke with us about why his company is so deeply invested in what he calls “security by design.”
