The whole area of IoT where devices such as smart meters and health sensors are connected to the internet to transfer data has raised the issue of data security.
Many chip firms are implementing security techniques such as authentication and processor partitioning into their devices.
Intel’s device authentication technology called Enhanced Privacy ID is intended to allow a service provider when setting up a connection to an IoT device to verify that an end user is authorised to access the service.
For the user of the IoT device the EPID protocol should mean they do not need to reveal their identity to an internet service provider.
According to Lorie Wigle, general manager of Internet of Things Security at Intel, the technology will mean users of Microchip’s devices will be able to “maintain end-to-end security and privacy in their IoT products and services, which helps them to protect data from device to cloud, minimizes unauthorized access of endpoints and gateways, and will promote a common security framework for IoT platforms.”
At the Intel Developer Forum this week in San Francisco, the Intel EPID protocol was demonstrated running on Microchip’s IoT Security Platform (pictured)
“Microchip has long recognised the importance of security in IoT applications,” said Ian Harris, vice president of Microchip’s Computing Products Group.
