SORACOM is set to launch its "IoT and Physical AI System Security Diagnosis and Hardening Service" on November 10th. This new service targets network-connected systems, including IoT and Physical AI, offering comprehensive, end-to-end support from vulnerability diagnosis to the design, implementation, and re-verification of countermeasures. Pricing will be individually quoted based on the specific service content. Applications for the service will be accepted via SORACOM's inquiry page.
A key feature of this service is its ability to diagnose devices, communication paths, and cloud infrastructure collectively. Unlike conventional approaches that focus solely on individual devices or applications, this service is designed to evaluate risks, including those hidden at the interconnection points between systems. The diagnostic process leverages multiple AI agents to conduct comprehensive verification, including penetration testing, across servers, devices, and communication paths.
Regarding countermeasures, SORACOM proposes solutions such as network isolation, communication destination restrictions and filtering, communication path encryption, and enhanced authentication, providing implementation support as needed. For environments utilizing SORACOM, the platform's functions are leveraged as "points of implementation for countermeasures," extending to communication status monitoring and the establishment of anomaly detection mechanisms. The service also supports the introduction of authentication and key exchange using SIMs and eSIMs, offering hardening strategies that anticipate future configuration reviews.
Target clients for this service include companies operating IoT in sectors such as manufacturing, logistics, energy, infrastructure, and buildings, as well as enterprises developing or implementing robots and physical AI, and providers of IoT products and services. Consultations are available regardless of whether SORACOM is currently in use, and the service can also accommodate diagnostics for only partial system configurations. This service is a key component of the "SORACOM Physical AI Suite," which was announced on the same day, underscoring SORACOM's commitment to integrating security as a fundamental prerequisite for design and operation, rather than treating it as an afterthought.
