Stefanini Partners with Shield-IoT to Secure Connected Devices

Stefanini Cyber Defense, a Stefanini Group company specializing in advanced intelligence and cyber defense solutions, announces a global partnership with Israeli-based Shield-IoT, a cyber security software solution provider for the internet of things (IoT).

Leveraging Shield-IoT’s Coreset-AI Asset Management and Threat Prevention Platform, Stefanini now serves multiple cybersecurity domains, including IoT and industrial IoT, in a single place.

With more than 27 billion devices expected to be connected by 2025 and driven by the growing maturity of technologies such as 5G, AI and the cloud, enterprises will rely on their connected devices to enable sustainable automated services and fuel business growth.

As IoT networks mature, so does the need for security. With an estimated 57 percent of IoT devices vulnerable to medium-high severity attacks, security leaders are forced to look for ways to protect their organization and IoT infrastructure.

The Shield-IoT AI Threat Prevention network security solution analyzes device-to-cloud traffic statistics to detect the first signs of unknown cyber-attacks and operational events, to prevent any impact to customer networks, data, or IoT services.

Its network-wide Asset Management solution combined with real-time actionable alerts provide users with immediate security and operational visibility, enabling automatic threat prevention to ensure continuous service operation.

Built to protect any out-of-perimeter IoT device or application at unlimited scale, the agentless SaaS platform requires no device or network changes and has no impact on existing network performance.

Leveraging the offering, Stefanini’s customers across multiple IoT/IIoT verticals ranging from energy, water, gas, and oil retailers, to airlines, mining and transportation are able to protect any connected device or application across any network.

The service is available worldwide and delivered by professionals trained through the partnership with Stefanini Cyber Defense, operating in 41 countries
