Telit has partnered with Sternum, the multilayered cybersecurity solution to provide real-time embedded protection for Internet of Things (IoT) devices. Telit said Sternum’s solution can be built into its xE910 module family to give customers in-depth visibility and security for their entire device fleet. This visibility is designed to provide real-time alerts of cyber breaches, prevented attacks, and device malfunctioning. 

Telit plans to integrate Sternum’s Embedded Integrity Verification (EIV) solution onto its ME910 IoT modules. EIV is designed to validate every operation within any IoT device where Telit’s module is installed, operating like an on-device firewall. Telit also plans to offer security services by enabling Sternum’s Real-time IoT Event Monitoring System (RIEMS); to enable Original Equipment Manufacturers to identify attacks on individual devices in real time. Telit plans to offer these security enhanced modules to manufacturers of cellular-enabled products across industries such as medical, industry 4.0, and smart cities. 

“Telit’s cellular modules are-embedded in over 150 million OEM IoT devices,” said Alon Segal, Telit senior vice president of Software & Services. “We continue to invest in leading edge technology to secure and enable our customers. With Sternum’s technology, we add real-time embedded protection for smart devices, allowing Telit to provide even more secure products and to continue to lead the IoT market by providing innovative security services to our clients.”
