Securing devices for the IoT – FIPS 140-3 and common criteria
For developers of IoT devices and networks, the Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 140-3 and the Common Criteria (CC) serve different but complementary functions. FIPS 140-3 is designed for validating software and hardware in cryptographic modules, while CC is designed to evaluate security functions in IT software and hardware. In both cases, there are related […]
Securing devices for the IoT — IEC 62443, SESIP, and PSA
The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 62443 series of standards is focused on security for Industrial Automation and Control Systems (IACS); the Security Evaluation Standard for IoT Platforms (SESIP) provides a method for trustworthy assessment of the security IoT platforms, including the industrial IoT (IIoT), and Platform Security Architecture (PSA) certification requires strict adherence to the […]
Securing devices for the IoT – managing memory
Memory management is important in all digital electronic devices including devices designed for use on the Internet of Things (IoT). It supports efficient resource allocation and memory utilization and prevents memory fragmentation, improving efficiency. It also supports memory protection and device security. This FAQ briefly reviews the common weakness enumeration (CWE) scheme for identifying software […]
Securing devices for the IoT – firmware, software, and OTA
Over-the-air (OTA) updating of firmware and software on Internet of Things (IoT) devices is a requirement, not an option. The large number of IoT devices makes manual updates impractical and even dangerous. This FAQ reviews two key tools for managing and implementing OTA for IoT devices: open-source standards for managing resource-constrained devices and industry standards […]
Securing devices for the IoT — minimize the attack surface
An attack surface is the sum of all the attack vectors or ways that an attacker can gain malicious access to a network or system. The growth in remote work and the adoption of cloud services have increased the number of attack vectors and the size of the attack surface for most organizations and applications. […]
