Capgemini and IDEMIA launch IoT device management platform

Capgemini will enter into a new partnership agreement with Augmented Identity service provider IDEMIA with the aim of introducing a secure Internet of Things (IoT) device management platform which reinforces secure connectivity for an array of devices and data. This agreement is a step towards meeting the growing need for the connectivity and security of smart objects. Even though cybercrime costs have quadrupled between 2015 and 2019, IoT will create more opportunities for many industries. Given this context, for IoT to be more scalable and trustworthy for clients and end users, connectivity capabilities and security need to be increased. Backed by Capgemini and IDEMIA’s expertise, the joint platform intends to bring to smart devices much needed security and connectivity while simplifying the device onboarding, configuration and integration with existing customer back-end systems.
