Solution enables devices to be easily
and securely integrated with IoT Cloud Platforms, speeding time to
market and ensuring device security
Icon Labs’ Floodgate IoT Security Toolkit includes integration with
Verizon’s ThingSpace IoT Cloud Platform
November 17, 2016 West Des Moines, IA - Icon Labs
(www.iconlabs.com), a leading provider of security solutions for IoT
and edge devices, today announced its Floodgate IoT Security Toolkit.
The solution enables IoT edge devices to be easily and securely
integrated with IoT cloud platforms, including Verizon’s ThingSpace IoT
Cloud Platform, and provides security management for remote IoT devices
from a single user interface.
The new Icon Labs Floodgate IoT Security Toolkit provides connectivity
to the cloud platform over a secure communication link for both normal
device operation and for security management. The solution includes
critical security countermeasures to protect the device from attack,
intrusion detection to identify when the device is being attacked, and
security management to respond to attacks.
Alerts from the intrusion detection module inform the user of security
anomalies. These alerts are sent to the security management systems,
allowing changes to security policies to be pushed out to each device
in real-time. The management system also supports software
updates to be securely transmitted and installed, all using the same
management interface.
Critical security countermeasures included are secure boot, encrypted
communication, an endpoint firewall, and mutual authentication based on
PKI certificates.
“Security concerns are consistently cited as one of the major issues
impeding IoT deployments,” says Alan Grau, President of Icon Labs.
“This solution provides designers an interactive and scalable drop-in
security solution that protects IoT devices from the growing threat of
cyber-attacks. Icon Labs’ Floodgate IoT Security Toolkit provides
robust and easy to implement end-to-end security management for IoT
devices - allowing a client application to harden and manage endpoints
from the cloud.”

TLS, key management/SCEP, and a management agent.
This solution is available today and has been integrated with Verizon’s
ThingSpace IoT Platform and Verizon’s IoT Secure Credentialing Servicer
(IoT SC), and demonstrated on the Renesas Synergy platform from Renesas
Electronics America, Inc. The Floodgate toolkit supports any embedded
OS including embedded Linux, Nucleus, ThreadX, UC/OS-III, LynxOS,
VxWorks and other RTOSes.
