Tern Plc ("Tern" or the "Company")
Device Authority and Venafi Announce Code Signing Service Integration for
KeyScaler
Tern Plc (AIM: TERN), the investment company specialising in the Internet of
Things ("IoT"), is pleased to announce that Device Authority Limited ("DA"),
a global leader in identity and access management for the IoT, has been
accepted into the Venafi Machine Identity and Protection Development Fund, a
US$12.5 million initiative to protect all machine identities, established by
Venafi, a leading provider of machine identity protection.
Device Authority will create a new certificate authority service connector
which will plug into Venafi's platform. This will allow KeyScaler customers
to use the Venafi platform as a source for certificate issuance.
Partners to the Fund are selected based on their ability to accelerate the
delivery of comprehensive protection for machine identities across complex
enterprise networks. Currently, there are limited solutions on the market
that deliver full end-to-end code signing and update delivery for IoT use
cases. Therefore, organisations are forced to design and build their own
home-grown solutions to fulfil their requirements. Device Authority will
solve this problem by providing a turn-key code signing and update delivery
solution which can integrate into any new or existing workflows.
Al Sisto, CEO of Tern, said: "We are very pleased and congratulate the DA
team for securing this contract from the prestigious Venafi Machine Identity
Protection Development Fund. Venafi is a leader in the cybersecurity space
and this deal to develop a new certificate authority service connector for
its platform endorses the quality of its technology."
