Connected devices are now critical to nearly every industry—but they are also one of the fastest-growing attack vectors. Many ship with default credentials, weak provisioning, and no way to verify identity or integrity.

Device Authority solves this challenge with KeyScaler, delivering automated, end-to-end lifecycle management for large-scale OT/IoT deployments, including those unmanaged at the edge. From onboarding to retirement, every device is authenticated, securely updated, and cryptographically trusted—protecting against exploits like credential stuffing, unauthorized access, and firmware tampering.

KeyScaler is also a valuable tool for developing the next generation of cybersecurity talent. Universities can integrate it into coursework, giving students hands-on experience in IoT/OT identity management and preparing them to address real-world device security challenges from day one.

During this webinar, attendees learned about:

• Current and emerging IoT/OT challenges
• The importance of device lifecycle management
• Why Device Trust is foundational for Zero-Trust
• Device Authority's academic licensing program
