Quickly and easily deploy digital identities, at scale to every device. With every product requiring its own CA, a multi-tenant architecture is a must for scalability.
Manufacturer
or Utility: secure smart-meter manufacturing and operations
Establish a trusted identity for every meter, enroll it securely in the utility network, and protect its communications, certificates, and firmware throughout its service life.
THE CHALLENGES
Getting meters online is only the beginning.
Each meter arrives with an identity from its manufacturer, but the utility still has to verify it and securely onboard the device. Then its credentials and firmware must stay protected through years of operation. Repeating that reliably across millions of meters and multiple protocols is the challenge.
Each protocol brings its own security requirements.
OUR APPROACH
Cryptographic infrastructure
for smart-metering
Identity-first security makes it possible for manufacturers to build smart-meters and ensure that utilities can deploy them zero-touch at scale and maintain them securely up to date.
“We needed to issue Wi-SUN IDevID certificates with a centralized system for our multi-million smart-meter production across nine factories and four contract manufacturers around the globe.
We also needed to implement a firmware signing infrastructure serving our different R&D product teams on three continents, each potentially using different chipsets and build tools. “
