Thales Demonstrates IoT Building Blocks at CES 2020

Thales participated in CES in Las Vegas to demonstrate key IoT building blocks for trusted cellular connectivity – ranging from eSIM to cellular IoT modules, cybersecurity, IoT services and device lifecycle management.

• Security for 5G – Thales provides state-of-the-art digital authentication, combined with secure identity and data management to enable trust in 5G;
• The world’s smallest 5G IoT broadband data card – This new solution supports IoT device manufacturers in their first step towards highspeed 5G for IoT. It enables size-constrained devices to benefit from 5G speeds and plug-and-play global connectivity. It offers full 5G spectrum support and high-speed LTE fallback for regions that do not have full 5G deployment;
• Gemalto’s eSIM (embedded SIM) technology enables device manufacturers to ship ready-to-connect, highly secure IoT devices, for seamless and instant connectivity, improving overall customer experience;
• IoT applications such as Greyp’s connected eMountain bike which introduce groundbreaking smart functions, powered by Gemalto’s embedded SIM (eSIM) and IoT cellular modules.
• Thales’ digital security solutions, including the world’s first 5G SIM cards, leverage strong authentication and end-to-end encryption, which combined ensure data confidentiality and integrity for secure and scalable device connectivity.

“We have been pioneering IoT solutions for 25 years and celebrated our 150 millionth IoT cellular module delivered worldwide in 2019,” said Andreas Haegele, VP IoT at Thales. “Our industrial IoT solutions are designed to be secure, smart and scalable, allowing our customers to rely on us for a comprehensive portfolio of hardware, software and support services, for the most ambitious IoT projects.”
