Xaptum is an early pioneer and leader in Internet of Things cybersecurity. Our mission is to capture the market by simplifying secure communication in IoT forever! The Public Internet was not designed for IoT. It was designed to facilitate information download, not to securely orchestrate traffic exchange between billions of IoT endpoints. The evolution of IoT brings challenges across security, interoperability, identity & access, traffic orchestration, ease-of-use and control. Our core offering, the Edge Network Fabric (ENF)™, is a secure, globally routable (but publicly invisible), software-defined IPv6-overlay network for IoT. Our current focus is to work with sectors with the greatest need to scale IoT deployments with security, performance and reliability, which are energy, infrastructure, Industry 4.0, heavy machinery, transportation and facilities.
