2 Solution Brief: Introduction Cloud of Things brings end-to-end solutions and an integrated partner ecosystem to companies who manufacture and distribute smart products. DeviceTone works at the edge of the network, securely connecting devices to networks and clouds, enabling new applications and breakthrough business models We work closely with Communications Service Providers, Cloud Service Providers and Systems Integrators to deliver high quality, cost-efficient, reliable and secure solutions that are part of the digital transformation of traditional product companies. Constrained Devices IoT Hub & Gateways Cloud Edge-OS for Devices Edge-OS for Gateways Manager Challenges We Address Across the growing IoT ecosystem, product manufacturers and the communications service providers, cloud service providers, and systems integrators recognize the massive opportunity to create value with Smart Products and related services. But in order for scalable, profitable, sensible offerings to be successful in the real world, the orchestration of all aspects of connected products must be well thought out and deployed in the highest quality fashion. That s why Cloud of Things developed DeviceTone s end-point and gateway technologies, and related CloudSwitch capabilities making it easier, economically feasible, and finally possible to design, deliver and manage the next generation of consumer, business and enterprise connected products.

Future-proof solution: any hardware, communication protocol or cloud selected today can be replaced easily with the latest technologies tomorrow. Cost savings: on-device data analytics for data traffic optimization, and CloudSwitch technology for directing data to any cloud or multiple clouds, drive down costs. Enabling Connected Products DeviceTone is ready to run Works on hundreds of chips and modules Complete end-to-end offering Ecosystem Friendly. Seriously Scalable. Solutions for Product Companies Cloud of Things that provides a future-proof end-to-end solution for appliance, electric and electronic device manufacturers. Our solution includes a highly secure plug and play connectivity firmware, a robust IoT cloud infrastructure and an automatically-generated mobile control application delivering a working prototype for new or existing products Solutions for Systems Integrators Systems integrators are partnering with Cloud of Things to win new business as well as to extend their value to their existing clients. Cloud of Things DeviceTone and CloudSwitch solutions, our use of open standards, our flexible architecture and device-agnostic approach adds up to the kind of flexibility systems integrators require in order to bring choices to their customers. With our underlying technology, systems integrators are able to create and brand their own IoT solutions for smart product companies, giving their customers the ability to connect any device to any cloud over any network protocol. Solutions for Communications Service Providers Cloud of Things brings new opportunities to Communications Service Providers providing network connectivity of all types. We work with telecommunications companies to enhance their IoT solution capabilities, enabling them to bring proven solutions to market that address the challenges at the very edge of IoT networks, so they can focus on selling services over the Internet, over private networks including SD-Wans, WiFi, Cellular, NB-IoT, LoRa, Bluetooth, mesh and more. Solutions for Cloud Service Providers Cloud of Things was built from the ground up to work on any private, public and hybrid cloud, and supports multi-cloud deployments, enabled by our CloudSwitch routing innovations. Our end-to-end smart product solutions drive demand for cloud services, and are leveraged by cloud providers including Microsoft Azure, Amazon Web Services, IBM Bluemix and others to extend their IoT cloud offerings to the very edge of the Internet.

5 Solution Brief: Secure By Design DeviceTone has been developed, tested and deployed over several years, with security in its DNA. Strategy & Direction Strategic Direction Requirements & Drivers Application Security Privacy Considerations Security & Operations Tamper Management Physical Technical Execution Physical On the physical layer, the Cloud of Things security token / certificate is stored in an internal location of the Flash memory of the device. We are not using the MAC address as a token. A hacker would need to find a way to read the specific memory location to get the certificate or key. The key is unique to the device. If a hacker finds a way to read the key in one of the devices, he will not have access to the rest of the system limiting the potential damage he can make to that specific device scope. Network The entire communication stack is based on TLS encryption ( advanced SSL ) with certificate authentication. Since we control the entire communication stack, someone who wants to eavesdrop the communication packets will not be able to do it. Meter/Host/Sensor The hub, oven and fridge have SSH-only access and will not have a login/password scheme. This will lead a hacker to have to gain access to the unique public key of the specific device. Even if a hacker gained access to this key, he will not be able to affect more than the scope of that device. (most of the latest IoT breaches happened when hackers used a common, master user/password, for a system. Such a key does not exist in our system). Data The data for the system is stored in the IoT cloud (Microsoft, IBM, Google, Amazon). The security measures of protecting the data depend on the specific cloud that is used for IoT data storage. It s important to note that no private information is stored in the IoT cloud. The identification of devices and hubs is stored as globally unique identifiers (GUIDs). The customer private information is stored in the internal customer s ERP/CRM system that holds a link to the IoT identifiers. Thus, even if a hacker gained access to data in the cloud, he or she would not have access to the private information of customers. Application The application has industry-standard security measures that prevent someone from the outside to gain access to the control dashboards using methods that are used in web-based banking systems. Only users with the right credentials can use the system and the system is constantly monitored using the administrative authentication, authorization, monitoring and activity log: Each person with administrative privileges to the system should be identified and authorized. Administrators activities will be monitored and logged. Administrative role management: each administrator or group of administrators (help-desk, system engineers etc.) will have different administrative rights such as view only, or remotely reset a device with prior approval of the connected product s owner etc. Some remote device control will not be enabled at all by design. For instance, there is no reason to remotely turn on a water tap as it may cause a flood. A water tap should be turned on only when someone s physically present and operates it.
