Jasper Wireless, the leading connected devices platform powering the mobile Internet of Things, announced a technical partnership with Giesecke & Devrient (G&D) to deliver a commercial end-to-end solution for Global SIM, enabling remote provisioning and managing of mobile operator credentials and policies for that single SIM anywhere in the world.

The joint solution will enable enterprises to deliver their connected devices worldwide by minimizing the complexity involved in working with multiple operators across disparate regions.

Jasper and G&D together provide an integrated solution to address the challenges that come with deploying connected devices across mobile operator borders, including provisioning and re-provisioning the SIM remotely and automating billing, reporting, support and operational management processes. The solution is based on the Jasper Global SIM software module, part of the cloud-based Jasper Platform used by 15 mobile operator groups to support more than 2,500 enterprises’ IoT deployments globally. Jasper Global SIM is integrated with the G&D SmartTrust AirOn platform, which manages SIMs and subscriptions Over-the-Air (OTA) and maintains the highest level of security.

“For the Internet of Things to live up to its explosive potential, interoperable global service with local support is the Holy Grail,” said Macario Namie, vice rpesident marketing at Jasper. “For many enterprises, their connected device business requires local service that meets regional regulations, performance standards and economic needs, yet in order to properly scale is streamlined over one standardized platform with a single SIM and single point of visibility and control. We’ve come together with G&D to offer – a worldwide platform and Global SIM with local service expressly designed for the mobile Internet of Things.”

Jasper has deep experience and proven success in meeting the demands of multi-national enterprises when it comes to IoT,” said Marianne Arosenius, group senior vice president of G&D’s Server Software and Services Division. “We are excited to bring our expertise in secure remote management of devices and SIMs together to offer a complete solution in the market place in providing enterprises with everything they need to scale IoT deployments as well as easing the way for operators to deliver on the promise of enabling truly global connected device services.”
