At GITEX 2024, held from 14-18 of October in Dubai, Kaspersky announced the launch of Appicenter, a content distribution platform for KasperskyOS-based devices. Kaspersky IoT Secure Gateway (KISG) is the first product to be supported by Appicenter. This platformintroduces a wide range of business scenarios and expands the industries covered by the Cyber Immune IoT Gateway. Kaspersky IoT Secure Gateway 3.0 and Kaspersky Appicenter are now available in the Middle East and Türkiye.
Both solutions embody the concept of Cyber Immunity, where IT products are created from the ground up using Secure by Design methodology. This approach ensures inherent resistance to the majority of cyberattacks. Cyber Immune solutions are particularly sought after in industries requiring high levels of cybersecurity, reliability and predictability requirements, such as the industrial sector, energy, petrochemistry, transport and logistics, healthcare, and smart city systems.
Kaspersky Appicenter supports all stages of the application lifecycle, connecting developers, global vendors, and end-users of KasperskyOS-based devices. The platform is comprised of three key elements:
The developer portal provides SDK and KISG firmware, openly accessible for developers.
Currently, the Appicenter website features three applications for Kaspersky IoT Secure Gateway:
Kaspersky IoT Secure Gateway (KISG) is a Cyber Immune gateway designed to secure data transmission between technological and corporate data networks, offering robust protection for the industrial Internet of Things.
The new product can operate in two modes: router and data diode. In router mode, the NAT port forwarding function has been introduced, along with application protocol filtering and industrial protocol inspection (DPI with intrusion detection/prevention function). This enables the blocking of network connections and specific operations based on the application protocol. Multiple gateways can now be combined into a high-availability network cluster, with one gateway active and the others acting as backups. Additionally, the new KISG supports user-configurable static routes for more flexible management of network packets. In data diode mode, user applications can now be executed, with each application running in an isolated environment.
The newly launched version 3.0 of KISG provides self-testing of key subsystems to monitor the performance of security functions. It enables the verification of system file integrity and installed applications, and supports the installation of applications from Kaspersky Appicenter.
Kaspersky IoT Security Gateway helps customers reduce the cost of building network infrastructure and optimizes cybersecurity processes. It enables centralized device management through a single administration console (Kaspersky Security Center). Untrusted applications can be integrated into a secure operating system, eliminating the risk of vulnerability exploitation or undeclared functionalities. This solution adds an independent layer of protection to existing automation systems and enhances the security of IoT devices.
Our Cyber Immunity approach is reshaping the future of cybersecurity and is gaining significant momentum in the Middle East and Turkiye, as more organizations recognize the need for inherently secure technologies. The recent updates in our Cyber Immunity portfolio help enhance the security posture of our clients in critical infrastructure industries. In the coming years, we expect this shift to accelerate
