Intent on introducing an IoT device management platform premised on secure connectivity for a wide array of devices and data, Capgemini and IDEMIA have partnered to face the growing smart devices frontier.

This partnership comes out of a joint understanding that even though cybersecurity costs have dramatically risen over the last half-decade, the opportunities IoT will present a swathe of industries over the coming years is too promising to ignore. Capgemini noted that use cases such as in e-health are being prevented due to scaleability and security concerns, which the two companies complementarily hold expertise in.

Jean-Pierre Petit, Director of Digital Manufacturing at Capgemini, had this to say about the budding platform:

“The basic foundation of product or industrial analytics and AI is connectivity coupled with security. Capgemini’s agreement with IDEMIA will provide a unique, fully agnostic, configurable and highly secure platform from an end-point device to the cloud.”

Capgemini specialise in consulting, technology services and digital transformation, developing a reputation for enabling business ambitions through strategic and operational expertise. Their current ambition, the secure IoT device management platform, will be aided by IDEMIA’s emphasis on secure augmented identity verification.
