Staex GmbH joins The Tower Automation Alliance (TAA) realizing secure data infrastructure delivery for the telco industry

2024-02-14

The Tower Automation Alliance welcomes Staex, mobile-first VPN and a secure public network for industrial IoT that allows IP cameras, electric vehicle chargers, and other devices and machines that cannot run a VPN to become part of the secure public network.

Staex, originally developed at Deutsche Telekom's R&D, is the mobile-first VPN and a secure public network for industrial IoT that allows IP cameras, electric vehicle chargers, and other devices and machines that cannot run a VPN to become part of the secure public network. It reduces mobile data costs, running on the smallest Linux-based devices with limited resources while using state-of-the-art cryptography to protect their mission-critical data. This secure IoT-backed network enables businesses to build new revenue streams with other partners within days.

Dr. Alexandra Mikityuk, CEO of Staex, believes that the Tower Automation Alliance provides Staex with a strong platform for collaboration and valuable partnership opportunities.

Both Staex and the Tower Automation Alliance recognise the great importance of security today, especially in the field of telecommunications infrastructure. This shared commitment extends to Web3 projects, aimed at implementing carrier-grade security measures in the communication systems of smart cities to prevent cyber attacks.

The TAA's commitment to fostering collaboration aligns perfectly with our vision of creating secure, efficient, and scalable solutions for the telecoms sector. We look forward to contributing our expertise and working collectively on the digital transformation of towers, ushering in a new era of innovation and efficiency.

About Staex

Staex is a secure public network for IoT devices that can not run a VPN such as smart meters, IP cameras, and EV chargers. Staex encrypts legacy protocols, reduces mobile data usage, and simplifies building networks with complex topologies through its unique multi-hop architecture. Staex is fully zero-trust meaning that no traffic is allowed unless specified by the device owner which makes it more secure than even some private networks. With this, Staex creates an additional separation layer to provide more security for IoT devices on the Internet, also protecting other Internet services from DDoS attacks that are usually executed on millions of IoT machines.
