Technical Specification
The Azure Sphere device in the Guardian communicates with the cloud, instead of the device, and therefore protects equipment from attack. This ensures that data is only transmitted between the trusted cloud and device communications partners; the module's software and equipment remain intact and secured. With Avnet Guardian, enterprise customers can more confidently connect existing devices to the cloud, helping them to operate more efficiently, drive innovation, and create a better customer experience. Product Brief
Beyond retrofitting existing devices, Avnet Guardian can also improve connectivity that does not meet enterprise-level security requirements. It is a good fit for any industry that operates using mission-critical, capital-intense equipment.
Businesses can start seeing value right away with plug and play modules that are easy for anyone, including non-technical onsite employees, to install. It also integrates with Avnet's IoTConnect, a secure, cloud-based platform with a portfolio of pre-built, smart, industry-specific connectivity solutions. Businesses can use these to quickly implement innovative IoT solutions and gain real-time data insights.
Customers will need a free Azure tenant to enable automated Azure Sphere security updates. Azure Sphere can be used with other non-Azure cloud services, or even pushed to a customer's existing, internal data center.
