Modern unmanned and autonomous systems include a wide range of devices, such as unmanned taxis, public and freight transport, delivery rovers and agricultural drones, unmanned loader cranes, cleaning robots and inspectors of main pipelines. All of these devices are highly innovative and manufacturable, as well as operate in an untrusted environment, which imposes special requirements on the security of stored and transmitted data, algorithm protection, device identification, and control of license restrictions.

Guardant solutions address all the challenges involved in securing and licensing unmanned and autonomous systems. The platform includes hardware (chip or USB) and software security keys, code security tools, data encryption tools, API for integration, and a license accounting and management system.

The Guardant solution is completely Russian and is created at the Aktiv Company's own production facility in Moscow. This allows not only to control safety at all stages of production and quickly implement new functionality, but also to minimize dependence on external circumstances, suppliers, logistical difficulties and changes in the exchange rate of foreign currencies.

Tasks to be solved

01 Algorithm and firmware protection

Multi-layered protection of firmware against reverse engineering allows you to keep unique algorithms, technological know-how and sensitive data secret from competitors and unscrupulous users. To ensure the highest level, it is possible to execute part of your product code inside a specialized secure hardware key.

02 Security of stored and transmitted data

The data accumulated on the device and transmitted are reliably protected from leakage and substitution using strong encryption algorithms. Data protection is possible with both software and hardware solutions that provide the highest level of security.

03 Device Authentication

All devices involved in the exchange undergo a strict identification and authentication procedure using modern and strong cryptographic methods, and also have a unique hardware or software identifier.

04 Hardware-based encryption

The keys have a hardware cryptographic module, which allows you to securely encrypt and keep data secret. Unrecoverable encryption keys and the use of strong protocols allow you to achieve the highest level of security.

05 Remote Update

Securely deliver and remotely update firmware, licenses, and data online or offline. All information is securely encrypted thanks to the cryptographic capabilities of hardware and software security keys.

06 New business models

Implement new hardware licensing models without changing the product itself. The ability to license device functionality at the software level and sell modules on a subscription basis or for actual use helps to enter new markets and receive recurring payments from customers.

07 Production Optimization

Licensing device functionality at the firmware level. Possibility of flexible sales and production optimization. The solution allows you to produce a single hardware platform and define functionality at the software level. Due to this, production costs, logistics costs are reduced and sales efficiency is increased.

Result of Guardant implementation

Reduction of reputational and financial risks associated with theft, disclosure or modification of data, technological secrets and know-how implemented in the product.
Gain a competitive advantage by providing a product that provides the highest level of data security, software, and strong device authentication.
Reduce company costs by optimizing production, logistics and sales process by moving to a universal hardware platform and defining functionality at the hardware level.
Increase revenue through flexible licensing models. Ability to sell additional functionality separately and with optimal license restrictions (permanent license, subscription, fee for actual use).
