Embedded Firewalls for IoT Devices

Join our VP of IoT and Embedded Solutions, Alan Grau, as he dives into embedded firewalls for IoT devices. What you'll learn from this video:

► Challenges building security into IoT devices

IoT devices are specialized, have limited resources, and often have lifetimes measured in decades. This presents unique challenges. There is no “one size fits all” security solution for IoT devices. IoT device developers need specialized security solutions designed specifically for IoT devices.

► What does security mean for IoT devices?

While IoT devices are specialized the security challenges they face are not unique. IoT security solutions must provide authentication, data protection, protection from cyberattacks and integration with security management systems.

► What is an embedded firewall?

Embedded devices require a specialized firewall designed to work on specialized, limited resource devices. An embedded firewall must be portable, scalable, easily managed and tailored to support IoT use cases.

► What features should an embedded firewall support?

An embedded firewall should provide rules-based filtering, stateful packet inspection and threshold-based filtering and protocol specific filtering rules. It must also be easy to integrate with any device and provide a simple method of configuring filtering rules.
