Afero and Texas Instruments have announced a strategic collaboration to deliver a highly secure, scalable IoT platform. The new secure IoT platform partnership will bring together Afero’s cloud software with Texas Instruments’ expertise in embedded hardware. This will significantly cut down the time it takes for product makers to deploy connected devices in a safer way. Similarly, the two companies have teamed up to simplify IoT development and enhance device lifecycle management. Afero’s platform naturally integrates with Texas Instruments, thus minimizing complexity through provisioning, updates, and into ongoing operations.
“For true enterprise-grade security, we must move beyond software-only solutions. Establish verifiable trust at the deepest layer: the silicon itself,” said Joe Britt, CEO and Co-Founder of Afero. “Our partnership with Texas Instruments, which is expanding its U.S. manufacturing footprint. Is a critical step toward supply chain resilience and enterprise assurance in the connected world.”
Strengthening Security Across Connected Ecosystems
The secure IoT platform partnership, apart from this, addresses rising security risks across connected ecosystems. The joint solution embeds security at the hardware and software levels. Therefore, manufacturers can protect devices from onboarding through long-term deployment. Afero designed its platform to support over one billion devices globally. On the other hand, Texas Instruments is also offering low-power, high-performance semiconductor technologies for IoT use cases. Thus, both companies serve industries such as smart homes, industrial IoT, and energy management through their respective technologies. Finally, the partnership for a secure IoT platform enables both companies to cater to global demands for secure IoT technologies.
