Mastering the challenges of BYOD
The massive spread of mobile devices has led to a new phenomenon for IT managers and administrators alike with pros and cons. BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) refers to users who use their private devices for business purposes. Of course, it puts special demands on security when such private devices are integrated into a company network. In BYOD scenarios, ECOS Technology products provide a significant increase in data protection by separating private hardware and business use one hundred percent while meeting the respective compliance requirements.

IoT: The Internet is more than just notebooks and PCs
The times when networking and online connectivity were only relevant for classic computers and PCs are long gone. In many areas, the keyword IoT is now a matter of integrating a wide variety of machines and devices into the network securely, be it complex systems in production or the IT of vehicles. Key management literally plays a key role in IoT, because appropriate certificates and keys must ensure that only authorized systems or devices can access network resources. Efficient key management is therefore an indispensable part of a holistic IoT strategy.

IoT in the industrial environment
While in the private sector IoT concepts are often still smiled at or viewed with a certain suspicion (e.g. the refrigerator ordering food on its own via Internet), the industry is already a large step ahead. The use of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is at the core when it comes to optimizing important business processes. Security in the IIoT environment can be increased by using digital certificates to verify and validate the authenticity of devices.

Fit for the Internet of things with ECOS
A PKI solution can form the cornerstone for a secure use of the Internet of Things in many infrastructures. The public key infrastructure thereby acts as a control center responsible for issuing and validating certificates. Symmetric keys can be used especially in this contect. The PKI solution from ECOS provides a simple and clear administration of symmetric keys.
