Microsemi to Present “Security for the Internet of Things: Challenges and Solutions,” During Electronica 2014’s Embedded Forum and Participate as a Panel Member as Part of the Event’s Security Forum

WHY:     Security is constantly in the public eye, yet most of the FPGAs being used to develop mainstream applications in the IoT do not necessarily offer the level of security needed to protect data and valuable application IP. Advanced security features of Microsemi’s SmartFusion2 SoC FPGAs and IGLOO2 FPGAs provide that added layer of protection crucial for many of the new mainstream solutions being developed for IoT applications such as smart grids; M2M communication in manufacturing and power, oil and gas utilities, implantable devices, vehicle to vehicle and vehicle to infrastructure applications; enterprise core routers and switches, and much more.  

WHO:    Electronic developers, software engineers, researchers, development executives, production representatives and others interested in the latest technologies related to the electronics industry will be in attendance at the conference.

WHEN:  The Security Forum roundtable discussion will take place Wednesday, Nov. 12, with Session 1 at 10:30 a.m. CET and Session 2 at 1 p.m. CET.

The “Security for the Internet of Things (IoT)” presentation at the Embedded Forum will take place Friday, Nov. 14 from 2:30-3 p.m. CET in Hall A6.
