Fujitsu Develops Network Control Technology to Minimize Impact of Cyberattacks on IoT Devices

Kawasaki, Japan, May 28, 2018

Fujitsu Laboratories Ltd. today announced the development of network control technology that can securely operate IoT devices installed on-site.

Sensors, manufacturing equipment, and other IoT devices connected to networks in on-site environments such as factories lack the capability for authentication or virus checking, leaving them open to malware attacks that result in stoppages in factory operations.

This is a global problem, and existing anti-virus software often cannot be installed in IoT devices due to CPU and memory capacity restrictions, and many existing devices are exposed to threats from cyberattacks.
