Exein Partners with AAEON to Strengthen IoT Security Across Industrial Edge Devices
The rapid expansion of the Internet of Things (IoT) has transformed industries worldwide, from industrial automation to smart transportation. However, with this growth comes an increasing number of cybersecurity threats targeting connected devices. Ensuring robust security at the embedded level is no longer optional—it’s essential. That’s why Exein is proud to announce our new partnership with AAEON, a global leader in industrial IoT and AI Edge solutions.
A New Standard for Embedded Cybersecurity
In this strategic collaboration, Exein’s real-time embedded security technology will be seamlessly integrated across AAEON’s entire installed base. This means that customers using AAEON’s industrial IoT and AI Edge solutions will benefit from:
- Real-time threat detection and response powered by Exein’s AI-driven cybersecurity platform.
- Compliance with global regulations such as the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) and Radio Equipment Directive (RED) 3.3.
- Seamless security integration across AAEON’s embedded devices, ensuring protection without disrupting performance.
The partnership follows Exein’s significant industry partnerships in recent months with MediaTek, Integral Systems and Supermicro.
How Exein Enhances AAEON’s Products
Several of AAEON’s latest edge computing products have already launched with Exein’s security software embedded, including the UP Squared Pro 7000 Edge System and UP Xtreme i14 Edge Computing Kit. These devices, widely used in industrial automation and smart transportation, require the highest levels of security to protect critical infrastructure and sensitive data.
By embedding Exein’s security platform, AAEON’s customers can now:
- Monitor and manage device security in real-time through a centralized system.
- Identify vulnerabilities and mitigate risks before they escalate.
- Ensure long-term compliance with evolving cybersecurity regulations.
