Innovative Silicon Valley Security Company SafeLogic to Contribute Security Leadership to Industrial Internet Interoperability Non-Profit
Palo Alto, CA – March 19, 2015 – SafeLogic, the company re-inventing how encryption is delivered, has joined the Industrial Internet Consortium (IIC), founded in 2014 by AT&T, Cisco, General Electric, Intel and IBM. The non-profit organization is dedicated to breaking down the barriers of technology silos to support better access to Big Data with improved integration of the physical and digital worlds to unlock business value.
“We have been impressed by the traction of the IIC and it’s the perfect time to get involved,” said Ray Potter, CEO of SafeLogic. “We are looking forward to working alongside the members and administrators of the Consortium to improve security strategies for the future of the industrial internet!”
To kick off SafeLogic’s involvement in the IIC, Potter will be attending and addressing the upcoming spring members’ meeting. The conference will be held in Reston, Virginia from March 24th to 26th, 2015. The agenda includes a public event on the afternoon of the 26th, titled “From Vision To Reality: 365 Days Into The Industrial Internet Revolution”, in which IIC delegates will discuss the outward-facing role of the consortium and the progress made in the first year of existence.
The IIC now boasts over 140 members and is growing quickly, much to the satisfaction of executive director Dr. Richard Soley.
“We are extremely pleased to welcome SafeLogic to the Consortium,” said Dr. Soley. “Their efforts to innovate in the area of encryption for the Industrial Internet, the Internet of Things, and other constrained environments demonstrates a high level of commitment to security in our field and will have a strong positive effect on Industrial Internet Consortium activities.”
