"Trustonic's product line offers customers end-to-end solutions that ensure connected devices are legitimate, identifiable, and protected at all times," said Vikrant Gandhi, Industry Director at Frost & Sullivan.

Trustonic offers the Trustonic Secure Platform (consisting of the Kinibi® and Kinibi-M secure OS), device identity (ID) management, and the Trustonic Application Protection solutions to help secure applications running on connected devices. Features on these solutions include:

• The Trustonic Secure Platform's Kinibi® and Kinibi-M secure OS delivers hardware security for critical applications and enables critical OEM and third-party applications to execute in a highly secure, hardware-isolated environment with no impact on application or device performance.
• The Trustonic Application Protection solution enables developers to develop secure applications that can be deployed across the fragmented mobile and IoT device environments using a common API set. This means applications only need to be created once and can then be deployed automatically utilizing the best security available (at the time of use) based on the device's particular capabilities.

As an integral part of its solutions, Trustonic embeds a Root of Trust in each device.  This is a per-device key to enable lifetime validation of the device identity and its security software. It helps device original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to validate the authenticity of device components and to gain visibility into various service parameters or device life cycle stages.

Trustonic's product line strategy delivers open access to innovative and high-performance hardware device security features through its Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) with zero extra hardware component costs for clients. Trustonic continues to aggressively invest in new product enhancements to support its long-term growth strategy and ensure that customers of all sizes receive high-quality service and support.

"By offering open, scalable access to hardware device features for multiple value chain participants, Trustonic has emerged as a leading provider in connected device security," said Vikrant.

Each year, Frost & Sullivan presents this award to the company that has developed a comprehensive product line that caters to the breadth of the market it serves. The award recognizes the extent to which the product line meets customer base demands and the overall impact it has in terms of customer value and increased market share.
