Introducing the Cradlepoint S700 and NetCloud Exchange

In a significant move towards enhancing security in the rapidly expanding world of the Internet of Things (IoT), Cradlepoint, a global leader in cloud-delivered LTE and 5G wireless network edge solutions, has announced the launch of its latest IoT router, the S700.

This multipurpose IoT router is designed to address the growing security concerns surrounding IoT devices. With the S700, Cradlepoint aims to provide enterprise customers with a comprehensive zero-trust security service that safeguards their IoT infrastructure.

The Growing Importance of IoT Security

There are an estimated 41.76 billion IoT devices, growing at a rate of 18% annually. Despite this growth, many IoT solutions need more security measures to combat modern cyber threats. As organizations face significant challenges in managing and securing their distributed IoT networks, IT teams require a zero-trust approach to security, enabling them to establish and maintain robust security policies and grant access to authorized third-party management of devices.

Cradlepoint's introduction of the S700 IoT router, coupled with the Cradlepoint NetCloud Exchange Secure Connect, presents an innovative solution that addresses the security needs of IoT infrastructure while offering a cloud-managed network solution that prioritizes zero-trust security. This cloud-managed security solution ensures that IoT devices remain protected as the attack surface expands and cybercriminals increasingly target connected devices.

Key Benefits of the S700 and NetCloud Exchange

The S700 IoT router and NetCloud Exchange bring numerous advantages to enterprise customers:

Connect-and-go Zero Trust

By connecting IoT devices to the router, they immediately become invisible to public scans and internal sites. Access policies can be easily defined, allowing IoT devices to communicate only with authorized resources on a least-privilege basis.

Efficient WAN Creation

The S700 simplifies deployment and management complexities by providing an intuitive cloud-based management system. With a few clicks, IT teams can orchestrate zero-trust encrypted tunnels over cellular and wired links, enabling efficient WAN creation.

Small Router with Big Security

The S700 ensures that even devices connected to a small router can access full modern security services, including zero trust. By offloading security processes to a services gateway, the S700 adds simplicity while managing security policies, router updates, security patches, and process orchestration.

Third-Party Access Protection

As over 60% of WANs serve outside customers and suppliers, safeguarding third-party access to IoT equipment becomes crucial. The Cradlepoint S700 router allows fine-grained policies to be implemented on the zero-trust services gateway, enabling controlled third-party access to the management system of an IoT device behind the Cradlepoint router.

Features of the S700

Designed to cater to the needs of enterprises, the S700 IoT router supports a wide range of devices, including light industrial, smart city, IoT, and portable devices. It provides connectivity options through LTE, dual Gigabit Ethernet ports, and dual-band Wi-Fi 6.

Additionally, the S700 offers advanced features like active GNSS/GPS for asset tracking and GPIO pins for external sensor control and monitoring.
