Kudelski IoT and Infineon Launch Matter-Certified Security Solution for Smart Home Devices

Kudelski IoT, a digital security and IoT solutions provider, alongside Infineon Technologies AG, announces a new security collaboration aimed at the smart home and smart building device sectors. This alliance introduces a security solution featuring the Matter provisioning service, utilizing Infineon's OPTIGA™ Trust M MTR Secure Element in combination with Kudelski IoT’s Matter Certificate Service. The initiative aims to simplify the integration of the Matter standard into IoT devices, elevating their security, interoperability, and reliability.

The Matter standard, developed with input from over 600 companies, including Kudelski IoT and Infineon, is designed to revolutionize the smart home industry by facilitating seamless device interoperability while upholding top-notch security standards. Considering the anticipated growth of smart home devices to 1.7 billion units by 2030, the emphasis on a secure, interoperable ecosystem is more pronounced than ever.

The partnership between Kudelski IoT and Infineon not only enhances the security of IoT devices but also streamlines their development, enabling manufacturers to accelerate time-to-market. A novel approach to device attestation introduced through this collaboration provides manufacturers with the flexibility to assign Device Attestation Certificates later in the production cycle, facilitated by Kudelski IoT, an approved authority by the Connectivity Standards Alliance.

The OPTIGA Trust M MTR Secure Element is set to be available from March 2024, with samples and evaluation kits currently accessible. Both companies are dedicated to offering extensive support to developers, aiming to foster the production of secure, efficient smart home devices.
