Whether it's the automotive or electronics industry, IoT (Internet of Things) and smart technologies, industrial automation or medical and safety technology: the advance of digitalization requires the highest level of cybersecurity – right from the initial programming. A robust and reliable manufacturing process is an absolute necessity. btv seel® offers a comprehensive solution that meets the highest security requirements while also fulfilling the requirements of the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA).
With the passing of the CRA at the beginning of 2024, manufacturers, distributors and importers will have to comply with strict security requirements from 2027. With btv seel®, btv technologies provides a future-oriented solution (patent pending). This is how we help companies to meet these requirements efficiently and securely.

seel® unlimited: 100% security with our chain of trust
seel® unlimited transmits your sensitive data within a protected data space – to do this, we agree a customer-specific process with you. This ensures that everything ultimately meets your requirements and you can continue to work directly with the programmed chips.
Within the data room, which is secured by asymmetric 4k key technology, the firmware is only decrypted in the RAM. As part of the programming, a corresponding public-private key pair is generated at the microcontroller level. A certificate can also be created. You sign the certificates via our shared secure data room. Finally, we visually inspect all chips to ensure that only intact goods reach you.
