Kigen wants your next SIM to disappear
The Arm spinout puts cellular identity inside connected devices, from cattle tags to electricity grids. Its real business is making those devices manageable long after they leave the factory.
Trustonic bets on the phone that can lock itself
A phone that stops working after a missed payment is a powerful incentive. Trustonic is turning that control into a business built around smartphone credit, as its old secure operating system reaches the end of the road.
SecEdge
SecEdge is a Seattle-based digital security company that secures IoT and Edge devices from the silicon up to the cloud. Formed in 2023 by carving Privafy's IoT business out and acquiring embedded-security pioneer Sequitur Labs, the company packages hard problems - device identity, secure boot, key management, over-the-air updates and secure connectivity - into software products like the EmSPARK Security Suite, the EmPOWER lifecycle-management SaaS and SEC-TPM, a firmware TPM built in Arm TrustZone. Led by semiconductor and digital-security veteran Sami Nassar and chairman Rick Clemmer, SecEdge aims to make chip-to-cloud security something device makers can adopt off the shelf rather than build from scratch.
