Collaboration to launch Aeris IoT WatchtowerTM into the Asia-Pacific region to help close security gap in cellular Internet of Things (IoT) networks.

Bridge Alliance* and Aeris Communications, Inc.**, today announced they are teaming up to offer Aeris IoT Watchtower, an agentless and frictionless solution that delivers full visibility into the cyber risk of enterprise customers’ IoT devices plus the tools to prevent or limit damage from an attack.

The agreement is an extension of an existing partnership through which Aeris provides cellular IoT connectivity management services to participating Bridge Alliance Member Operators (BMOs) via the Aeris IoT Accelerator (IoTA) platform.

Enterprises face unprecedented challenges in securing their growing cellular IoT deployments as IoT devices are increasingly targeted by cyber attackers looking to penetrate enterprise networks. Recent research by Forrester shows that IoT devices within company assets are now the top target for corporate cyber-attacks1. However, existing IoT connectivity solutions do not deliver the end-to-end visibility nor control capabilities that enterprises need to detect and mitigate such threats.

At the same time, enterprises in many sectors including automotive and utilities are increasingly taking advantage of cellular IoT to derive new revenue streams and improve operational efficiency. The global number of cellular IoT connections has been growing rapidly, and according to Berg Insights there are 1.1 billion connected cellular IoT devices globally with growth expected at 16% CAGR over the next three years2. The Asia-Pacific region has also seen impressive growth with the current 170 million connected cellular IoT devices set to almost double by 20303.

Working together, Aeris and Bridge Alliance intend to close the cellular IoT security gap by offering the groundbreaking Aeris IoT Watchtower solution to enterprises in Asia-Pacific. Consisting of two critical components – “Awareness” and “Enforcement” – Aeris IoT Watchtower delivers enterprise IoT visibility and control to detect IoT security breaches, significantly reducing the impact of any IoT security event. Furthermore, the solution delivers regular risk assessments and device insights to improve operational efficiency and ensure regulatory compliance.

Aeris IoT Watchtower is currently available in the United States and Europe and is now being rolled out across Asia-Pacific in partnership with Bridge Alliance.

Dr. Ong Geok Chwee, CEO of Bridge Alliance, said, “The commercial launch of Aeris IoT Watchtower in Asia-Pacific for our BMOs and their customers is a milestone in enhancing security for the IoTA platform, and will boost security and regulatory compliance for enterprise IoT deployments and offer advanced network visibility to meet cybersecurity needs. We look forward to extending Watchtower into more APAC markets in the coming months.”

Emmanuel Bain, Senior Vice President of IoT, Mobility & Cloud at PCCW Global, said, “This new service will empower our enterprise customers to securely manage their IoT devices while unlocking real insights. The service provides in-depth reports on device activity, enabling customers to spot illegal traffic, while the most advanced features also help screen and clean traffic from devices in real-time. It’s not just about connecting things – it’s about creating safer, smarter, and more impactful digital experiences,”

Mark Cratsenburg, Chief Commercial Officer for the IoT Business Unit at Aeris emphasizes the ease of use:

“Aeris IoT Watchtower offers real-time protection with zero friction. Forget agents, special SIM cards, or complex rerouting. We provide enterprises complete visibility into their cellular IoT security risks and the ability to neutralize threats before they impact operations, all seamlessly built into their existing cellular data path.”

* Bridge Alliance, the leading alliance for premier mobile network operators in Asia-Pacific, Europe, the Middle East and Africa
** Aeris Communications, a global leader in secure cellular IoT platforms and solutions
