Physical Layer Security for IoT Devices

Secure your devices from hackers and data breaches

What is PLS-IIoT?

Encryption is the gold standard to protect confidential and sensitive information over the internet. The robustness of the encryption schemes boils down to the security of the keys. So, the best practice is to update the keys as frequently as possible. It becomes a big challenge for IoT and sensor devices because:

resource constraints – limited compute, memory and storage capabilities and battery powered
deployment in open and hostile environments – making them easy to hack
Security is a after thought!! – Performance v/s Security trade-off
No encryption is in place
Secret keys are updated after ages

Our product complies with Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure Bill which prohibits using default passwords.

Case Studies

PLS-IIoT has successfully been tested in the following case studies.

Infrastructure Management System

Our designed infrastructure monitoring system comprised of a series of raspberry pie devices acting as end nodes in a LoRaWAN network that fed data back to the gateway. The devices provide data relating to continuous monitoring of aseptic and other controlled environments.

Asset Tracking System

Asset tracking, in its simplest definition, is the method used to track a company’s physical assets either by scanning barcode labels attached to the assets or by using tags using GPS or RFID, which broadcast their location.
