Privacy and security are must-have requirements in the growing smart grid and energy management market. Consumers must be assured that their energy usage and profiles remain private, while grid operators rely on the integrity of the energy data managed home and industrial building for billing and operations.
Cypherbridge Systems has secured design wins within energy management, which integrates our low footprint uSSL security SDK with central gateway controllers for global intelligent building control systems manufacturers.
The uSSL SDK is hosted on the gateway running in-building wireless and wired bus device load management, lighting control, climate control and energy profile reporting. The energy profile records are periodically reported to a cloud server through a uSSL secure channel.
In a project like this, Cypherbridge will typically coordinate with other project suppliers and may assist the development of the embedded custom gateway applications. The Cypherbridge solution includes a compact Javascript JSON protocol library for standards based interoperability with the Windows cloud server systems.
The integrated solution also hosts an embedded web browser used by the building operation supervisor from smart phone or tablet. CPU and memory resources are shared among multiple applications.
To end users, the uSSL SDK compact footprint along with Cypherbridge’s industry experience to deliver the secure cloud reporting client and content server applications, are key decision points.
