WiseKey, SealsQ join forces to strengthen IoT security with AI-powered solutions
WiseKey and SealsQ have partnered to enhance the security of semiconductors and the broader IoT ecosystem through the use of generative AI technology. They aim to utilize the capabilities of pre-trained transformer architecture and its incorporation with ChatGPT to protect distributed infrastructure from cyber threats.
The news comes as the U.S. Government is working on a cybersecurity labeling program for smart devices to protect American consumers. This initiative, known as the Cyber Trust Mark, is expected to be completed by the end of 2023 and launched in 2024. The program aims to provide cybersecurity certification and labeling for IoT devices, particularly those used in smart homes.
SealsQ says it has enhanced customer privacy during interactions by integrating GPT capabilities, ensuring data encryption and security. Moreover, the service uses homomorphic encryption, enabling ChatGPT to analyze and generate responses based on encrypted data.
According to SealsQ, it provides a secure way to control IoT devices using natural language as it addresses the security risk of transmitting control commands in plain text over networks. SealsQ, for example, offers techniques to encrypt commands before they are sent to IoT devices.
“WiseKey’s AI Quantum solutions mark a significant milestone in the ongoing battle to protect sensitive information from quantum attacks. By combining the power of quantum mechanics and the expertise of our multidisciplinary team, we are confident that these innovations will shape the future of cryptography and cybersecurity,” says Carlos Moreira, the chief executive officer at WiseKey.
WiseKey has also been developing Trust Services that use Post-Quantum Encryption technology to offer protection against attacks from quantum computers. The company says this technology is advanced and helps to secure against the potential compromise of traditional cryptographic algorithms.
For example, WiseKey offers Trust Services that provide multiple security features, including digital signatures, encryption, secure communication channels (TLS) and key exchanges.
Additionally, WiseKey’s new solution includes hybrid signatures that integrate readily with existing systems. This approach combines a conventional primary signature with a secondary signature that utilizes a Post-Quantum Encryption algorithm, all within a single X.509 certificate.
