Enterprises on Ericsson IoT Accelerator-managing cellular devices such as sensors, meters, or tracking devices now have a much simpler way to connect to the already secure AWS server through Ericsson’s IoT Accelerator Cloud Connect, which moves complex encryption from the device to the edge of the cellular network.
With Ericsson’s IoT Accelerator Cloud Connect, companies using Ericsson cellular devices, such as sensors, meters or tracking devices, can easily connect to AWS servers, which are already secure. The Cloud Connect move complex encryption out to the Edge of the cellular network.
To connect to AWS IoT Core, all device communications must be encrypted with Transport Layer Security (TLS). As an alternative to IoT Accelerator, Cloud Connect provides plug-and-play functionality. This allows enterprises to simply activate the devices that tunnel to the Edge of the cellular infrastructure before automatically self-provisioning to AWS and connecting securely via Cloud Connect encryption & keys.
