Next generation SentriX streamlines security deployment definition and management end-to-end for mass production of IoT and automotive applications.

Data I/O Corporation (NASDAQ: DAIO), the leading global provider of advanced security and data deployment solutions for microcontrollers, security ICs and memory devices, today announced that it received a 2021 GLOBAL Technology Award in the category of Programming for its SentriX Product Creator™ tool suite. The award was presented during a ceremony that took place Tuesday, Nov. 16, 2021 during productronica trade show in Munich, Germany.

As the IoT markets continue to expand, OEMs of all sizes need a simplified, scalable, and integrated method to define and deploy robust IoT security. SentriX Product Creator reduces the complexity inherent in defining security for mass production by an order of magnitude. It delivers pre-configured security deployment profiles for the most popular IoT use cases such as cloud onboarding, secure boot, access control, device authenticity and others. OEMs can use the provided pre-defined use cases or customize their own security profile. Secrets and credentials input product definitions using SentriX Product Creator are protected in transport and at rest.

“We are thrilled Data I/O is recognized for our innovation and contribution to the embedded and electronics manufacturing industry with the 2021 Global Technology Award for SentriX Product Creator, said Anthony Ambrose, President and CEO of Data I/O Corporation. “The Global Technology Award is a testament to Data I/O’s continued innovation to simplify and scale the use of IoT security from design to production for any OEM regardless of size or volume.”

The GLOBAL Technology Awards have recognized the very best new innovations in the printed circuit assembly and packaging industries since 2005.
