Firedome enhances security for IoT with new integration for Microsoft Sentinee | IoT Now News & Reports

Firedome, a global IoT endpoint protection provider, announces its integration with Microsoft Defender for IoT (internet of things), using Microsoft Sentinel. This integration combines Firedome’s on-device agent-based real-time detection, prevention and response with Microsoft Defender for IoT’s network-based events, offering customers view, analysis prevention and remediation of cyberattacks in IoT/OT (operational technology) environments across all attack phases. Streamlined to Microsoft Sentinel, users can create alerts, investigate security incidents, and access device-entry-point data for enhanced device and organisational security.

Firedome’s Defence in Depth cyber solution is an approach to security that integrates prevention, detection, response, and is able to feed forensic data into a SIEM (security information and event management). Fully compatible with all major IoT operating systems (Linux, FreeRTOS, Windows, Android), a lightweight agent operates across various sectors, including healthcare, energy, smart buildings, and retail.

By combining Firedome’s on-device agent-based view and protection with Microsoft Defender for IoT’s network and perimeter capabilities, users gain valuable insights. They can identify, block and remediate the devices responsible for initiating cyber attacks within their IoT/OT network, track threats movements across network segments, and pinpoint devices involved in DDOS (distributed denial-of-service) and botnet campaigns. This integration empowers users to enhance their understanding of cyber threats and take proactive measures to safeguard their IoT environment.

“We are delighted to expand our longstanding relationship with Microsoft,” says Moti Shkolnik, Firedome’s co-founder and CEO. “Our new integration with Microsoft Defender for IoT will equip our shared customers with an in-depth view and understanding of cyber threats targeting their IoT devices and networks”.

“The integration of Firedome’s EDR with Microsoft Defender for IoT enriches the SOC (security operation centre) with valuable insights from cross network & endpoint for IoT/OT environments and devices,” says Nir Krumer, GM IoT/OT security at Microsoft. “Our aim is to empower SOC teams to provide and IoT/OT-enabled SOC that has visibility into all telemetry to detect and respond faster to cyber attacks on IoT/OT devices and networks.”

Firedome is a cybersecurity provider skilled in endpoint protection for IoT devices. The Firedome EPP (endpoint protection platform) allows organisations to prevent any advanced attack type on IoT endpoints that would otherwise be undetectable by existing security controls.

Firedome is democratising EPP for IoT and enables security teams to protect IoT endpoints with agent-based EPP for IoT.

Providing Defence in Depth protection along the attack chain, Firedome combines prevention, detection, response, and forensic data into a unified solution which integrates into existing SIEM platforms.  Firedome IoT agents are built to protect any IoT device across a variety of verticals such as healthcare, energy, smart building, retail and more. The company was founded by top security veterans, with a global team of cyber, embedded, research and analysis experts.
