Co-authored by Aniruddh Chitre, AWS Solutions ArchitectThis post demonstrates how AWS IoT Greengrass can be integrated with a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) to provide hardware-based endpoint device security. This integration ensures the private key used to establish device identity can be securely stored in tamper-proof hardware devices to prevent it from being taken out of the devices for impersonation and other malicious activities. With the ever-increasing adoption of IoT in various industries, managing the security of device fleets is a priority for any successful implementation. Industrial IoT ... Read More

Feed: AWS Government, Education, & Nonprofits Blog. Author: Daniel Bernao. To help solve a few challenges I faced with my family, including the need to track the location of a child, I needed a serverless global positioning system (GPS) monitoring solution.

Existing GPS systems work with proprietary GPS devices that lock-in the users’ vendors’ devices. Alerts and geofencing are normally limited to static geofencing, but I needed to track the distance between two moving points ... Read More
