[ALEXANDRIA, VA, October 15, 2020] Dark Cubed and internet of things (IoT) platform Pepper are joining forces to improve cybersecurity and visibility for the millions of IoT devices consumers and businesses access and rely on each day. Pepper is partnering with Dark Cubed to provide enhanced security and monitoring of the IoT infrastructure of the Pepper platform.

The threat of in-home smart IoT devices – like smart light bulbs, thermostats, power outlets, and security cameras – being hacked and controlled by botnets has been researched and documented extensively. Consumer IoT is alarmingly insecure and without dedicated practices to protect consumer data and video, users are at extreme risk of illegal access to highly personal data. Further, users unknowingly risk nefarious access to home wifi networks that can lead to access to anything connected to that network. Dark Cubed will be deployed within the Pepper Infrastructure to bring increased security to the Pepper platform – including 24/7 managed cybersecurity threat solutions, very unique in consumer IoT today.

Dark Cubed has a unique set of services and offerings that will support Pepper in its mission of delivering low-cost, high-quality IoT services to the marketplace, while providing superior security and privacy compared to other IoT platforms. “Cybersecurity and technology work best when companies collaborate at a high level and work together to secure themselves and their peers against new and emerging threats,” said Vince Crisler Founder and CEO of Dark Cubed.

This partnership will help strengthen the robust Dark Cubed threat scoring engine and provides Pepper with improved threat scoring, monitoring, and automated protection with information regarding current threats being seen across the Dark Cubed network. As Pepper continues to grow and enhance its service offerings, the security of their infrastructure will continue to be a competitive advantage in the marketplace.
