Case Studies

Managed IoT Connectivity Platform: Centralize your IoT connectivity

A Managed IoT Connectivity Platform allows the centralized management and monitoring of all connected IoT and M2M SIM cards as well as seamless communication with mobile networks.

The core functions of Managed IoT Connectivity services include:


  1. Flexible connectivity options: Using an IoT Connectivity Management Platform, companies can get an overview of all available mobile networks and international roaming partners.

  2. IoT SIM card management: Managed Connectivity Services provide advanced SIM card management capabilities, including activation, deactivation and further configuration via a centralized interface.

  3. Security features: Comprehensive security mechanisms protect IoT and M2M SIM cards from unauthorized access – from encryption of data transmission to secure VPN connections.

  4. Automated control: Routines such as activating or deactivating IoT SIM cards can be automated to increase efficiency.


Efficient management of IoT SIM cards through Managed IoT Connectivity services

As central control units, IoT Connectivity services allow a comprehensive monitoring of IoT SIM card activities. Companies benefit from insights such as costs, data volume, network activities and usage, thereby optimizing the management of their resources.

Costs can be controlled using pay-as-you-go models or predefined tariffs, and access to detailed reports and monitoring tools helps companies to maintain control over the incurred costs and data consumption. Limits for data consumption and costs can be set, with alarms triggered automatically as soon as those are exceeded. In addition, roaming options can be adapted and unwanted network connections avoided. Real-time monitoring and reporting keep companies constantly informed about the current status and usage of SIM cards.

IoT connection management often includes functions such as troubleshooting, which is used to quickly disconnect SIM cards from the network in the event of problems and connectivity faults. Many IoT connectivity platforms use lifecycle management to support the adjustment of SIM card functionality over the entire product lifecycle. Solutions with session control make sure that IoT SIM cards always function as expected and allow rapid intervention in the event of any problems.


Security management with Managed IoT Connectivity Platforms: What to look out for?

Security is crucial when protecting IoT and M2M SIM cards. IoT Connectivity services with multi-layered security measures help to prevent unauthorized access and data leaks.

If misuse is suspected, IoT SIM cards can be blocked immediately and the IMEI SIM Lock function restricts the use of the card to certain devices. Tampering with devices or changing devices lead to the immediate deactivation of the card, and Two-factor-authentication secures platform access during login.

Private APNs and VPNs ensure data transmission and protection against third-party access. Additional security features such as Radius Forwarding and SMS Forwarding increase the reliability of communication. Radius Forwarding allows a SIM card to only establish a connection if it is authorized by a specific IT server, whereas SMS Forwarding enables M2M devices to send SMS messages to predefined numbers, which in turn forward the data to the platform.
