LOS ALTOS, Calif. - TelAve -- Afero, the next-generation IoT platform company, is working to make connected products more secure so that consumers can put their trust in the Internet of Things. A recent article in TechCrunch served as yet another reminder of security flaws in connected devices, flaws that erode customer confidence and destroy brands. In this case, attackers could gain access to homes through smart locks, without permission.

In IoT, millions of connected devices can become vulnerable all at once, requiring a whole new approach to security and simplicity. The Afero security model provides proactive and reactive end-to-end security every step of the way. When IoT products are Secured by Afero, each device is uniquely protected with a hardware root of trust and the enforcement of security best practices. Secured-by-Afero means device security is end-to-end, and from inception. It covers the device supply chain, the device, mobile app, and cloud, and it starts from the moment the device is manufactured.
