Intel Launches New Internet of Things Solution To Help Companies Quickly And Securely Onboard Connected Devices

From CRN: Intel wants to help customers overcome a major barrier to IoT – the daunting and time-consuming task of securely onboarding their connected devices.

The Santa Clara, Calif.-based company on Tuesday launched Intel Secure Device Onboarding, a service that helps customers install IoT devices more quickly and efficiently – while also reducing the time that it takes device manufacturers to pre-configure devices.

"We're seeing the benefits of IoT, but we're also seeing so many companies getting stuck in the proof of concept phase," said Dipti Vachani, vice president and general manager of Intel's Internet of Things Group. "Customers face challenges when they deploy IoT devices like connected lightbulbs, like security and IT-OT integration issues. Deploying a connected lightbulb can take up to 50 minutes. We wanted to take a step back and figure out how to help customers deploy this quickly."
