UPPSALA, Sweden, February 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Secure Thingz, an IAR Systems® group company providing advanced development and provisioning platforms for securing the IoT, today announced its partnership with Hi-Lo Systems, a global leader in services and device programming technologies.

Through the World Economic Forum’s Connected World Council, Secure Thingz has recently partnered with a host of organizations to build consensus around IoT security. The new Consumer IoT Security Support Statement outlines five key capabilities to establish a baseline for consumer IoT security, adding cyber risks to the top demonstrating that cross-border cyber attacks , misinformation and growing inequality between those who have access to digital services and those who do not are among the most serious medium- and short-term risks facing governments and businesses. Specifically, threats such as ransomware and nation-state attacks will continue to increase as organizations become more dependent on technology. To inhibit these cyberattacks and mitigate risk, it is essential that devices are manufactured with secure foundations and protected supply chains.

“We are excited to partner with Secure Thingz to integrate their advanced security technology into our device programming machines,” said Max Huang, President of Hi-Lo Systems. “Keeping the promise of an improved secure supply chain is essential for all our customers, both for our programming machines and for our programming service centers in the region.

“Strengthening the supply chain to protect valuable intellectual property, prevent counterfeiting and overproduction, as well as the ability to inhibit the injection of malware, is essential to building modern supply chains,” said Haydn Povey, CEO of Secure Thingz. “The partnership between Secure Thingz and Hi-Lo Systems is another step forward in our vision of simplified security.”
