With the increased exposure of devices and data in the connected world, this collaboration will focus on providing customers with policy-based identity lifecycle management, API based platform integration, while also delivering end-to-end data encryption to meet regulatory compliance in areas such EU GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) and HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996).
Tech Mahindra will bring its experience across industry verticals and its expertise within IoT to enhance the customer experience; making it easier and quicker for customers to deploy IoT security solutions.
“We are delighted to partner with Tech Mahindra who are recognized leaders in innovation and technology worldwide.
