Compare Azure Sphere vs. Tempered

Azure Sphere is a robust IoT platform designed for creating solutions that begin at the silicon level and seamlessly integrate with both the operating system and the cloud. It offers secure connections, management, and protection for both new and existing intelligent devices. Your device, data, and infrastructure are safeguarded across all dimensions—hardware, software, and the cloud. You can trust that your data environment is secured through a comprehensive end-to-end IoT security framework that enables the integration of current equipment and the development of new IoT devices. By utilizing Azure Sphere certified guardian modules, you can link your existing devices to the cloud or begin embedding Azure Sphere into new devices with the provided development kit. In response to evolving threats and requirements, the platform ensures real-time security patches, operating system updates, and enhancements to your applications. Each Azure Sphere instance is backed by over a decade of Microsoft security services, which include managed updates. When you are prepared, you can implement over-the-air (OTA) updates alongside your application directly to the IoT device, ensuring continuous security and performance enhancement. This versatility empowers businesses to stay ahead in a rapidly changing technological landscape.

Transform the network you envision into reality with a solution that is both quick to implement and easy to manage. There's no need for heavy machinery to get started. Safeguard essential assets and devices that cannot be patched by utilizing a segmented virtual air gap. This allows for secure connections between any device or network across diverse environments, including public, private, cloud, and mobile networks. Prevent unauthorized lateral movement that could jeopardize your network's integrity. Eliminate the need for internal firewalls, complex VLANs, and ACLs, all while replacing costly MPLS links with more affordable SDWAN capabilities. Streamline remote access for employees and vendors, enhance hybrid cloud connectivity, and facilitate effective multi-cloud transport. Additionally, isolate and secure vital process controls and devices, share device data safely with cloud analytics, and offer secure vendor access to sensitive industrial networks. With these measures, you can ensure robust network segmentation that enhances security and provides protection against ransomware threats while also improving overall network performance.
