IIoT Asset Management Systems
From landscaping equipment, to tow motor batteries, to nursing home patients and medical equipment bins, the USA Firmware team has a great deal of experience in asset management. It’s a key benefit of IIoT. And, USA Firmware brings decades of expert knowledge in tracking and reporting on business assets.
Benefits of
USA Firmware
Many of the complex, costly and time-consuming elements of an IIoT solution are seen every time we take on a design services project. The USA Firmware proprietary Fogware platform allows us to accelerate design, leverage our best-in-class security firmware, and substantially reduce project risk. Because we can reuse firmware modules that have been tested and deployed in other projects, we are able to provide this firmware to our clients at a much lower cost than developing the system from scratch.
Industrial applications are demanding in many ways. Products must be safe, operate reliably in harsh environments, and must never disrupt the operation of other equipment. To ensure these critical demands are met, industrial customers often require that products comply with international standards and carry a certification proving this compliance. USA Firmware engineers have designed and certified products that comply with a wide variety of standards including FCC.
A certification area of strength for USA Firmware is hazardous location certification. Our engineers have experience designing and certifying intrinsically safe products to meet IEC 60079-0 and IEC 60079-11. We can also help our clients meet ATEX and IECEx requirements.
USA Firmware’s staff includes experts in embedded systems security with prior experience in large corporations such as Cisco and the National Security Agency (NSA). This expertise is crucial in the industrial segment. Fogware Secure Firmware has been developed by these experts. Fogware has been tested against the rigorous IBM X-Force Red® penetration test suite.
