The Challenge

To test a cybersecurity company’s authentication capability, which offers a new way for machines to communicate with each other securely.

In the spring of 2026, AMRC’s engineers ran a series of tests on latency, data integrity, and network speeds. They conducted considerable beta testing to help make a better product which is easier to install. 

The AMRC’s work led to an improved product for Iothic, with better usability for their many clients in over six countries. The company is now seeking secure funding for further work at the AMRC, building a larger working demonstration that they can use to showcase their capabilities to large organisations with critical information to protect.

It is part of a wider piece of work within the AMRC to help connect systems in a safe and sustainable way. By storing data from every device in a network, it is possible to look at organisation-wide data to see where things go wrong, helping to fix problems quicker and more safely. 

The project with Iothic was another step towards improved global cybersecurity standards, safeguarding businesses and keeping us all connected into the future.
