GlobalPlatform brings IoT Security Certification workshop to Austin

March 16, 2022 – GlobalPlatform, the standard for secure digital devices and services, will host a Security Evaluation Standard for IoT Platforms (SESIP) methodology workshop in Austin, Texas on April 14. The full-day workshop will showcase how the methodology offers an optimized approach for evaluating the security of connected products that meets the specific compliance, security, privacy and scalability challenges of the evolving IoT ecosystem.

Published by GlobalPlatform in 2020, SESIP is mappable to multiple IoT requirements, to prove compliancy with standards and regulations and reduce fragmentation, cost and time-to-market for IoT stakeholders. The methodology also allows for the ’composition and reuse’ of certified components, so that they can be used to meet the requirements of multiple markets.

“In aligning with global security requirements from ETSI, IEC and NIST to name a few, SESIP is bringing the entire IoT security certification ecosystem together by sharing an evaluation methodology that enables the reuse of certified components,” comments Gil Bernabeu, GlobalPlatform Technical Director. “The Austin workshop presents a unique opportunity to delegates from throughout IoT to see real life applications of the methodology and learn how it can address their specific business and technical needs.”

The workshop will be presented by GlobalPlatform’s Chair, Stéphanie El Rhomri, alongside keynotes from NIST, SGS Brightsight and Winbond. It also involves live presentations and use cases by speakers from Amazon, Arm, IoXT, NXP, STMicroelectronics, Trust CB, and Winbond.

Sponsored by SGS Brightsight and Winbond, the workshop takes place at the Courtyard & Residence Inn, Austin Downtown Center. It will also be available virtually for those unable to travel. Register for the workshop here.
