To answer SW:

Paul distinctly said (see below) "and as I said before, we can very rapidly integrate to others. So, for example ones that we integrate with today are, Azure IoT, AWS IoT, Google and PTC Thingworx."

Google perhaps too, by next year?

I would be interesting to identify the extent of the working relationship between Device Authority and GOOGLE, noting the Question from Rosa and the response from Paul Lockley in the webinar, specifically, "[platforms] that we integrate with today are, Azure IoT, AWS IoT, Google and PTC Thingworx."


Re yesterday's Device Authority / EPS Global webinar.

At around 31:30 mins Rosa asks:

Q. What platforms can we integrate with for secure provisioning?

Paul Lockley, (DA) responds:

A. I'll take it. From the Device Authority standpoint you can integrate with pretty much any platform if it's using a reputable interface. We have a number of platforms that are available today out of the box, and as I said before, we can very rapidly integrate to others. So, for example ones that we integrate with today are, Azure IoT, AWS IoT, Google and PTC Thingworx.

Re Post 221141

A couple of articles about GOOGLE and its activities in the Automotive sector. Apologies about the second link - need subscription, however the headline appears telling, namely, "even as the rest of the auto industry embraces Google"

Extract 1:

"As a result, software developers need a big incentive to develop an app for a car - and the biggest incentive is a large user base.

It's for this reason that the Volkswagen Group and Google have a big advantage in the market at the moment.

Volkswagen sells 10 million cars a year that use the company's own software platform and operating system.

It has invested heavily in its Car.Software Organization, which has brought together all of the group's software staff, including those from its Audi and Porsche brands, into one team."

Extract 2:

"Meanwhile, Google works with over 50 car brands, with Android Auto on track to be in more than 100 million cars in the coming months.

With around 2.5 billion people already using Google's Android software on smartphones and other devices, consumers are already familiar with the way Android looks and works.

"We've taken the learnings and processes from mobile and applied them to how we approach Google Play on other devices," says Mickey Kataria, director of project management, Android for Cars.

Car manufacturers have been drawn to Google as a way to catch up with the likes of Tesla."

And another 50k added at 8.34p as well, that is me done for the week now. GLA

ahhh, this bit..

The IoT device identity should be unique, verifiable and trustworthy so that device registration attempts and any data uploaded to GCP can be trusted by the OEM. GCP verifies the device identity using PKI cryptography. This authentication scheme requires that the associated private key remains secret and hidden from users, software or malicious attackers during the product's lifecycle The EdgeLock SE05x security IC is designed to provide a tamper-resistant platform to safely store keys and credentials needed for device authentication and device onboarding to cloud service platforms such as GCP. Using the EdgeLock SE05x security IC, OEMs can safely connect their devices to GCP without writing security code or exposing credentials or keys. However, key generation and injection into security ICs can introduce vulnerabilities if not done properly. Manual provisioning can lead to errors and is difficult to scale when more devices are needed. Also, to ensure keys are kept safe, injection should take place in a trusted environment, in a facility with security features like tightly controlled access, careful personnel screening, and secure IT systems that protect against cyberattacks and theft of credentials among others. In order to allow OEMs to get rid of the complexity of key management and to offload the cost of ownership of a PKI infrastructure, the EdgeLock SE05x is offered pre-provisioned for ease of use. This means that OEMs are not required to program additional credentials and can leverage the EdgeLock SE05x ease of use configuration for most of the use cases, including for secure cloud onboarding of their devices to GCP.

It was a million

[tburns] 01/2/2021 15:28

Just added another 100k ay 8.34p, looking good for a climb to 10p this week me thinks.

NXP (an EPS partner) want to interface with GLP (Google Cloud platform) for IoT onboarding

An extra billion might secure DA although I would welcome any bid to start the auction process unless handshakes have already been done

[still waiting] 01/2/2021 15:23

big gap to fill up to 14p level.

[tburns] 01/2/2021 15:21

Well done TL

[tburns] 01/2/2021 15:20

Ooh Sweepie, competitive bidding for DA, now that's a concept I really like

[still waiting] 01/2/2021 15:20

andrbea, do you think they have a google cloud connector ?

[tialouise] 01/2/2021 15:19

Just took another 64 k and pushed the price x

[sweepie2] 01/2/2021 15:17

MS might not like that getting too cosy with Google

[andrbea] 01/2/2021 15:15

andrbea - 19 Oct 2020 - 10:30:31 - 221339

And if they are able to interface with Google Inc (quote by DA in the Q&A of EPS webinar), why not put a white paper on the DA website about their Goggle Connector, or arrange a webinar with Google?

[ebomber] 01/2/2021 15:08

Tick up time.

[sweepie2] 01/2/2021 15:03

Sold for £1m wasn't the out standing loan note converted at the time of the new investment?

[sweepie2] 01/2/2021 15:02

Good point SW, as payment is by the bed

[upthegardenpath] 01/2/2021 15:02

Wyld going well but we just sold 20% of it for £600,000 so that's what the market knows it's worth - just hoping DA will surprise us with its value.

[still waiting] 01/2/2021 15:00

I think you will need the no. of beds for the care homes...

the supermarkets should be an easier and more lucrative sell, better compliance with increased revenue and advertising opportunities, a whole new market..

[sweepie2] 01/2/2021 14:58

All of Fridays sells bought up so wouldn't take much to see it alot higher

Pity Wyld can't give us a care home update, we know its seven so far but seeing an update giving an idea of the market would allow the market to hang a few figures on the side

[still waiting] 01/2/2021 14:55

MM2 and his associates ?

[tburns] 01/2/2021 14:53

Nice 100k buy near full on the offer and can see another tick up soon. Getting stronger

[andrbea] 01/2/2021 14:51

IoT Central, worth focusing on that bit:

KeyScaler’s security suite for Microsoft Azure includes connectors for Device Provisioning Services (DPS), Azure IoT Hub, Event Hub, IoT Central, Key Vault, Active Director Certificate Services and IoT Edge. Often Enterprise customers need a security framework that encompasses multi-platform, multi-cloud environment and integration with their existing IT security infrastructure to successfully deliver secure and compliance IoT Solutions.

And then watch the video:

video for system operators/customers about
Managing (and onboarding) IoT devices at (production) scale



Reckon white label KS helpîng out here with the 'at scale' bit as the wide-eyed men in the video are not up to it themselves methinks (their approach is very much 1 window, 1 device or 1 device group added, and hoping (andpraying) then, that the networks involved are compatible. Enter patented KS (Microsoft's new buddy, but under wraps still), which is device- and network-agnostic, does everything very fast, without human intervention.
