You Don’t Have to Choose Between Being Connected and Protected

Today, Internet of Things (IoT) devices are one of the most common vehicles for sharing data and information. Knowing this, it should come as no surprise that these devices, when not properly managed and administered, are also potential targets for hackers, piracy and beyond. These attacks have become mainstream news in recent months, including distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks, targeted code injections, man-in-the-middle attacks, spoofing, ransomware and many more.¹

When these devices are breached, the consequences can be damaging. The average security breach costs a company $8.6M² without counting the cost of damaged reputation and future business. Somos is excited to offer an all-new, end-to-end solution that can protect against these attacks with trusted, full-lifecycle device identity management.

Comprehensive Service Offerings

Registration & Lifecycle Management

Improve visibility beyond provisioning into the events impacting your devices to understand the currency of their software and security patches.

Jurisdiction & Ownership Transfer

Keep track of your devices as their locations, roles, and statuses evolve.

Enterprise Risk Management

Identify the risk factors impacting your IoT identities across their lifecycles.

Replacement & Decommissioning

Once devices are retired, ensure respective identities are disassociated so devices don’t maintain access to your sensitive data.

An Authoritative IoT Device Identity Solution to Improve Security, Traceability and Transparency

Today, IoT devices are assumed secure from their initial provisioning while, in fact, it is impossible to trace and secure their embedded modular components.

Leveraging its core competencies in identity and data management, Somos is building an agnostic, authoritative IoT device identification solution for the ecosystem. Using multi-factor device identity verification and the latest in cryptography to ensure each device is holistically identified, the solution provides devices in the system with a unique ID (SomosID^TM).

The SomosID provides visibility to these components and material events (e.g., firmware updates and jurisdiction changes) to give you the current state of all of your devices. This enables end-to-end quality, data integrity and analysis.

A Leader in Data Solutions You Can Trust

An industry expert in identity and lifecycle management, fraud prevention and attestation, Somos is leveraging its deep knowledge and industry experience to enhance trust in the IoT ecosystem. At a time when hackers will stop at nothing to defraud innocent consumers, it is our responsibility to proactively protect IoT devices from potential security threats via the implementation of solutions that increase trust and minimize vulnerabilities.

Somos is at the forefront of developing, testing and delivering the tools needed to build trust, preserve integrity and mitigate fraud in voice and messaging communication. Somos operates a multi-tenant, highly scalable, secure systems platform architecture for the future of IoT identity management.

Currently managing over four billion identities in our numbering registries, Somos helps to empower more trusted connections between the ecosystem communities that exist today and into the future.
