Application and Security in Machinechat JEDI
At Machinechat we understand that security is paramount when integrating IoT solutions into critical infrastructure and handling sensitive data. We've designed JEDI with a security-first approach, prioritizing control, privacy, and resilience within your own networks.
Key Security Advantages
-
Simplified Security Management
Single Executable
JEDI's self-contained architecture minimizes the attack surface and reduces the complexity of applying security updates and patches. It eliminates the need to manage a web of dependencies like those found in many open source IoT solutions.
-
Operational Resilience
Internet Independence
JEDI functions without a persistent internet connection. This air-gaps your core IoT operations from external threats and reduces reliance on outside services.
-
Data Sovereignty
No Cloud Dependency
Your data remains on your local network. JEDI eliminates concerns around cloud-based data ownership, privacy, potential breaches, or unauthorized access.
-
Enhanced Network Security
SSL Support (HTTPS)
Encrypt JEDI's web interface traffic for secure management. Utilize self-signed or trusted CA certificates.
Addressing Common Concerns
We recognize that IT professionals and those responsible for critical infrastructure often have valid questions:
Question
"Can a single executable truly be more secure than systems with separate components?" Absolutely. Fewer components and dependencies translate to a smaller area for potential vulnerabilities. It dramatically simplifies patch management and security audits.
Question
"If JEDI is air-gapped, how does it receive essential security updates?" Updates can be easily applied manually within your controlled network environment. JEDI's streamlined architecture makes managing these updates straightforward.
Question
"Does on-premises mean I lose out on the convenience of cloud-based management?" Not at all. While JEDI prioritizes local control, its web-based management interface ensures convenient access and configuration from within your secure network.
JEDI Prioritizes Your Security
We are committed to continuously enhancing JEDI's security posture. Here's what this means for you:
Responsible Development: Security considerations are embedded in our development processes.
Transparency: We provide clear documentation on security features and best practices.
Responsiveness: Security concerns are handled with the utmost priority.
Is JEDI right for your highly secure environment?
If control, data ownership, and minimizing external dependencies are critical, JEDI offers a compelling security proposition.
