With billions of things connecting to the Internet, the challenge is how to address security, privacy and safety, and where to get started. Most industries need a security technology that is easy to implement, seamless in use, economical, flexible for various use cases, and scalable for future scenarios.
For any IoT application, it is crucial to protect data, user privacy, and safety. Breaches can harm production continuity and business processes, customers’ trust, and – worst of all – human health and life.
To enable true end-to-end security and prevent cyber attacks against IoT applications, a public-key infrastructure (PKI) can be used to issue certificate-based identities. These trusted identities secure the IoT applications with strong authentication of devices, people and servers, encrypted communication and proven data integrity.
Nexus Identities for IoT
Nexus Smart ID IoT enables you to create PKI-based trusted identities for smart devices of all capabilities to create secure connected world.
Subscribing to a service for PKI certificate lifecycle management for your IoT application means that you can focus on your core business, let experts manage your IoT device trusted identities from a compliant and certified data center, and pay as you grow.
Nexus GO IoT is a PKI certificate lifecycle management cloud service for IoT applications based on the Nexus Smart ID IoT product.

Obtaining Matter compliance allows manufacturers to proudly display the Matter logo on their products, assuring customers of seamless and secure connections with their favorite smart home devices.
To ensure Matter compliance, a product needs a PKI certificate from a trusted Matter Certificate Authority. As the European choice, Nexus stands ready to assist manufacturers in achieving Matter compliance, leveraging our scalable PKI platform.
WEBINAR
Watch the webinar to discover how your business can ensure that the connected things you produce are provisioned with a trusted identity.
Nexus Smart ID for the workforce is an identity and security platform that consists of standardized and easy-to-use modules:
The Smart ID PKI platform issues certificate-based, cryptographically secure and unforgeable identities that enable:
Strong authentication: Certificate-based authentication ensures that only authorized users, devices or servers can connect to a network or application. Revocation of certificates instantly blocks access in case of compromise or emergency.
Encryption and Privacy: Certificates enable encrypted communication between devices and services for secure transmission of data over TLS.
Integrity: Digitally signed messages based on certificates can be used to prove the origin of data, and to detect manipulation of data. Signed firmware enables secure software updates.
Nexus’ platform for IoT PKI has the following key benefits:
Guaranteed high performance with a proven capacity to issue 10,000 certificates per second. Offered as a service, guaranteed SLA and capacity as you grow.
Fulfills automotive requirements by supporting standards, such as the IEEE 1609-2 and ETSI TS 103 097 (V2X) for digital certificate formats and interfaces, C-ITS for vehicle-to-grid (V2G), and ISO 15118 for plug & charge.
Proven security as Nexus’ quality-assured PKI platform is being certified according to Common Criteria EAL4+, and Nexus’ organization complies with ISO 27001 and TISAX.
