Securing Your IoT Product
IoT security is key to protecting company brands, end user privacy and commercial viability of products. Vulnerabilities can be exploited through both remote Internet attacks and physical hands-on-attacks.
Developers using the Silicon Labs EFR32FG23 family have access to the highest level of IoT security provided by Secure Vault. The EFR32FG23 family is the first Sub-GHz radio to achieve a PSA Level 3 certification and SESIP Level 3 certification.
