WISeKey is a global cybersecurity company currently deploying large scale digital identity ecosystems with a patented process. WISeKey’s Swiss-based cryptographic Root of Trust (“RoT”) provides secure authentication and identification in both physical and virtual environments for the Internet of Things, Blockchain and Artificial Intelligence. The WISeKey RoT serves as a common trust anchor to ensure the integrity of online transactions among objects and between objects and people.

Their integrated vertical trusted platform combines a range of chips with software applications that cater to their customers’ security and business needs. The software includes proprietary technology developed by the company such as, RoT and Public Key Infrastructure (“PKI”). These technologies are offered as part of standalone products, as well as on the fully integrated Vertical Trusted Platform that enables WISeKey clients to manage their digital identity, information, and communications in a seamless process housed by complementary technology and products. They enable their clients to adapt to a changing device landscape without compromising their digital security. The rapid growth and proliferation of internet based devices, as well as people’s dependence on them for personal and business needs, precipitated the connectivity of digital devices. However, such connectivity creates numerous opportunities to alter or manipulate digital footprints. They believe that their integrated products provide the most comprehensive solution to these gaps in cybersecurity and data protection. The core of WISeKey’s Vertical Trusted Platform is based on their Cybersecurity SaaS business, also known as managed PKI services, and on their Semiconductor chips.
