ProIoT Update Ledger
A compliance platform for IoT device manufacturers to schedule, track, and verify over-the-air firmware security updates, generate audit-ready regulatory reports, and maintain tamper-proof update logs. Replaces patchwork spreadsheets and custom scripts that fail under new regulatory scrutiny.
Target Audience
Product and engineering managers at small to mid-size consumer IoT companies (smart locks, baby monitors, wearables) who manage firmware updates manually and are unprepared for imminent FCC security update mandates.
Why Now
Ask HN features an FCC Commissioner proposing regulation of IoT security updates, creating a direct and urgent compliance market. No vertical SaaS yet addresses the specific reporting and chain-of-custody requirements that such regulation would impose.
