SEALSQ Semiconductors Enhances IoT Security for Medical Devices: A New Era of Monitored, Managed, and Protected Healthcare Solutions

ZUG, Switzerland – August 30, 2023 – WISeKey International Holding Ltd. (“WISeKey”) (SIX: WIHN, NASDAQ: WKEY), a leader in cybersecurity, AI, Blockchain, and IoT operating as a holding company, today announced that its Semiconductors Post Quantum subsidiary, SEALSQ Corp. (Nasdaq: LAES) (“SEALSQ”), is introducing a new generation of semiconductors designed to enhance the IoT security for medical devices with clients, including a U.S. based healthcare equipment manufacturer  currently using these microchips.

SEALSQ's advanced security solution addresses the dynamic needs of the IoMT sector. By emphasizing adaptability, their secure element can be tailored to fulfil diverse requirements including factory-set, over-the-air, at the wafer level, or on-package. Integral to this solution are private keys and X509 certificates, ensuring compatibility with established protocols such as MATTER, Wi-SUN, and OPC. This advanced technology simplifies and streamlines authentication and commissioning, particularly with renowned platforms like Microsoft AZURE and AWS Clouds.

Beyond mere device inception, SEALSQ's dedicated PKI platform, INeS, offers a revolutionary approach. Providing manufacturers with a user-friendly interface, INeS allows seamless generation and management of compliant certificates throughout the device's lifecycle.

The foundation of this cutting-edge solution is SEALSQ’s VaultIC292, a testament to unparalleled security. Rooted in the reliable CCEAL4+ level Tamper Resistant hardware platform, it has been a cornerstone for safeguarding critical applications ranging from National IDs and e-Passports to Banking. The design of VaultIC292 prioritizes efficient operations with a minimalistic external component structure.

IoMT’s rise is synonymous with the evolution of healthcare. While remote patient monitoring stands out, the landscape is abundant with devices revolutionizing patient care. Semiconductors have played a pivotal role, revolutionizing medical technology and allowing precise electrical current control. This precision has paved the way for breakthrough devices that are reshaping detection, diagnosis, and treatment methodologies across ailments.
