Aeris, a global leader in secure cellular IoT platforms and solutions, launched Aeris IoT Watchtower, the world’s first fully integrated security solution for cellular IoT. Aeris IoT Watchtower delivers enterprise IoT visibility and control to prevent IoT security breaches, significantly reduce the impact of any IoT security event, improve operational efficiency, and ensure regulatory compliance.

Aeris’ groundbreaking solution comes at a pivotal time. IoT devices are already a primary target for cyberattackers looking to penetrate enterprise networks. In its 2024 Cyber Threat Trends Report, Deloitte found a 400% increase in IoT malware attacks across various industries. Forrester predicts that a major IoT breach will disrupt a large class of devices in 2025.
Aeris IoT Watchtower includes two critical components:
IoT Watchtower integrates seamlessly with Aeris IoT Accelerator, the company’s market-leading cellular IoT connectivity management platform acquired from Ericsson’s global IoT business in 2023, to deliver secure cellular IoT at scale. Aeris operates the core network across 25 mobile operators and monitors a real-time database of every data session, including destinations, ports, and protocols. Using Aeris’ own AI and known threat databases, Aeris IoT Watchtower provides real-time awareness of threats as they happen as well as policy-based controls to prevent attacks based on zero-trust networking and tools to stop or quarantine an active attack.
Mobile operators, manufacturers, solutions providers, and enterprises across verticals and geographies have embraced the power of Aeris IoT Watchtower.
Aziz Benmalek, CEO, Aeris
Enterprises can no longer afford to treat IoT security as an afterthought. With cyberattacks on IoT devices surging and threats becoming more sophisticated, businesses need a proactive, scalable solution. Aeris IoT Watchtower is the first solution to give enterprises and mobile operators the network-based visibility and zero-trust security they need to confidently scale their cellular IoT programs around the world.
Jonathan Connet, Chief Product Officer, Aeris
Enterprises using Aeris IoT Watchtower have full visibility into the cyber risk of their IoT devices plus the tools to prevent or limit damage from an attack. Best of all, the solution is completely frictionless with no agent or special SIM card required or proxy traffic to a security tool. IoT Watchtower does this all inline with the normal cellular data path.
