SECURING IoT
WITH BLOCKCHAIN

Leveraging the experience of the Essence Group, an IoT powerhouse.
SigmaDots brings the power of blockchain-based cybersecurity to the IoT ecosystem.

SigmaDots secures interactions between IoT devices with advanced blockchain methodologies to create a
decentralized IoT architecture. Our software-based solution harnesses the advantages of modern blockchain
methodologies yet is uniquely adapted to the constrained resources of IoT platforms.

IoT Security Challenges

There are major hurdles to securing always-connected IoT devices and endpoints to enable a true machine-to-machine economy.

No standards – There is no security standard or group of standards for IoT devices and device interoperability

Limited on-board resources – IoT devices have limited on-board resources and can’t run traditional security tools

Centralized approach – IoT sensor systems are highly-centralized

Lots of them – According to Gartner, by the end of this year 6.4 billion “connected things” will be in use worldwide, and over 20 billion by 2020.

 

The use of IoT networks as the basis for a large-scale cyberattack is just a matter of time. Existing blockchain-based solutions simply don’t suit real-time device interactions.

SigmaDots Solutions

SigmaDots delivers the foundation for true IoT security and visibility.

SigmaDots developed the first decentralized, multilayered IoT security platform with low-friction integration; and without the need for a security operations center (SOC).  SigmaDots’ unique device-embedded agent authenticates critical commands, safeguarding privacy and securing device communication.  We ensure business continuity using mesh routing and provide system resilience during cyberattacks, including DDoS, and communication layer congestion.

 

Beyond security, SigmaDots enables true visibility and control over networks of interconnected IoT devices – from sensors to insights.
