Device Security for Developers

Accelerate secure software delivery and reduce development costs

QuarkLink™ makes it easy for developers to implement security-by-design for IoT devices. It streamlines on-device key generation/storage, key/certificate management (PKI/CLM), on-device security features (e.g. secure boot, flash encryption), and integrates into your team’s existing software development lifecycle (SDLC, CI/CD).

Software development lifecycle integration (SDLC, CI/CD)

Whatever DevOps tooling you use (e.g. GitHub, GitLab, Jenkins, etc) QuarkLink™ integrates into your team’s existing software development lifecycle (SDLC, CI/CD).

Accelerate secure software delivery and reduce development costs. Allow your teams to focus on creating value through their code and rely on QuarkLink™ to take care of device security.

Key and certificate management (PKI/CLM)

QuarkLink™ takes care of securely storing keys and managing certificates, automating their creation, revocation, renewal, and reissue.

By centralizing and automating the management of keys and certificates, organizations can enhance visibility, reduce the risk of errors, and prevent outages caused by expired or compromised certificates.

Supported Devices & Platforms

QuarkLink™ works with any connected IoT device, from powerful SoCs running Linux to bare metal resource constrained MCUs.

Choose from common Linux distributions including Yocto, Debian, Ubuntu, Raspberry Pi OS, and popular hardware suppliers like NVIDIA, NXP, Renesas, ST Micro, and Microchip.

On-device security features (e.g. secure boot, flash encryption)

Protect devices against malicious software attacks at boot-time by ensuring that only trusted software, verified by a digital signature, is allowed to run.

Stop attackers taking over the device to steal sensitive data, launch distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks, or use the device as a gateway to infiltrate connected networks.

On-device key generation & storage

QuarkLink™ implements on-device key generation so device keys and identities are unique and never exposed during transmission or shared outside the device.

Reduce the risk of keys being compromised leading to device impersonation, decryption of sensitive data, or execution of unauthorized actions. You never have to share private keys by email or USB again!

Code signing & secure over-the-air updates (OTA)

Code signing/encryption is automated and signing keys are managed securely by QuarkLink™. Deployment of code is made easy with over-the-air updates (OTA).

Prevent the execution of unauthorized or tampered software and reduce the manual effort, and potential human error, in your development teams.

Onboarding to cloud services (e.g. IoT hubs, message brokers)

QuarkLink™ securely connects devices to all major IoT hubs, including AWS, Azure, and other MQTT or message brokers, and is equally able to work with private clouds or other services.

Unique device identities and mutual TLS ensure that both the device and the cloud service authenticate each other, reducing the risk of unauthorized access by cloned devices.

Device lifecycle management

QuarkLink™ can monitor a device’s firmware integrity to detect compromises or cyberattacks. In such a case, it can unlink a device from its system, disconnect it from servers and revoke its keys. And if a device changes ownership, it can be re-onboarded easily.

Will QuarkLink™ work for me?

Q. I don’t see my hardware listed, do you support it?

We support all major embedded platforms including MCU’s running bare metal, popular RTOS, and devices running Linux. We currently have integration guides for devices from NXP, Renesas, Microchip, ST, etc. If we don’t currently have an integration guide for your device we’d love to talk to you and see if we can add one.

Q. Are my private keys locked-in with QuarkLink?

No, we support a variety of HSMs (including any that use the PKCS11 standard) and as part of the QuarkLink set-up you define which HSM you would like to use
