Microsoft partners bring domain-specific knowledge and Internet of Things security expertise to every customer's IoT use case and deployment.

Determine the right IoT security solutions for your needs

Because of the complexity of IoT security, figuring out the most effective way to focus your resources can pose a challenge. One way to determine the right course of action for your organization is with security maturity modeling.

To help organizations successfully employ security maturity modeling, Microsoft partnered with the Industrial Internet Consortium Security Applicability Task Group to create the IoT Security Maturity Model.

This model provides a framework for understanding maturity targets, measuring your organization's current maturity state, and determining the right solutions for addressing security gaps. The information you glean from security maturity modeling can be used to facilitate communication with business stakeholders and rally support for moving forward with a comprehensive IoT security plan.
