About Thistle Technologies
We provide a security platform for IoT and embedded device manufacturers. Our platform offers tools and services that help increase security and reduce development time for these devices, which often lack the security found in general-purpose operating systems.
Our platform helps you ship validated updates with signed releases and reliable fail-over. It integrates with Linux or Windows devices and offers secure fetching and installation of assets or new software versions through an intuitive user interface.
To speed up development, we integrate with build systems, such as Yocto. Our platform also helps developers build security into their products by using a communications library written in a memory-safe language and a modern memory allocator that prevents memory corruption.
Our software includes:
- Secure Boot: Ensures all software on your devices comes from an approved source.
- Update: Manages software on a fleet of devices, handling both file and full system updates.
- Secure Communications: A secure and fast communication library (TLS stack) written in a memory-safe programming language.
- Memory Allocator: Helps prevent common memory allocation vulnerabilities in embedded devices.
- Secrets Management: An end-to-end secret management suite for devices and backend, coming soon.
Thistle Technologies was founded in 2020 by Window Snyder, who has experience building security technologies into platforms and operating systems.
