SEALSQ Launches SEALBOX TM

Geneva, Switzerland, March 14, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --

SEALSQ Corp (Nasdaq: LAES) (“SEALSQ” or “Company”), a leader in semiconductor, PKI, and Post-Quantum technology, today announced the launch of SEALBOX^TM, its innovative solution for IoT device provisioning at the manufacturing level. SEALBOX is available now and it will be showcased at the upcoming CSA Member Meeting, taking place in Singapore from March 18 - 21.

SEALBOX aims to address the current challenges in the IoT device provisioning process. This process of securely generating and provisioning device identity and data requires manufacturers to use a Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) to create and install a unique digital certificate. While it presents difficulties to both manufacturers and integrators, this process is crucial to guarantee device authentication and security. Providing each device with a distinct identity is also now enforced by prominent standards such as Matter, EV-charging, OPC-UA Industry 4.0, US Cyber Trust Mark, and the European Cyber Resilient Act.

SEALBOX has been designed to help overcome these challenges, offering a fully integrated, secure, and flexible solution to automate the generation and provisioning of trusted certificates, as well as firmware data provisioning, during the device’s manufacturing phase. It leverages SEALSQ’s PKI-as-a-Service INeS^TM, along with breakthrough secure programming and provisioning technology and hardware developed by SEALSQ’s partner, Trusted Objects.

Deployed in production and connected to a factory programmer, SEALBOX is natively connected to the INeS PKI cloud platform. The secure box automates the certificates generation and recovery from INeS, ensures certificates secure storage in production, and enables the secure provisioning of private keys and certificates up to the IoT device based on any kind of MCU or MPU. It is also capable of provisioning additional essential data like device firmware under a secure framework.

“The launch of SEALBOX marks SEALSQ’s further penetration down the value-chain. By adding another layer to our vertical suite of security products and services, SEALSQ is well-positioned to help IoT Device Makers seamlessly achieve all market standards compliance. We are proud to offer this powerful, all-in-one solution to the market,” said Gweltas Radenac, IoT Business Unit Director for SEALSQ.
