ChallengeHow FoundriesFactory™ helps
Scaling EV-charger installations is hampered by infrastructure complexity and the need to ensure availability, accessibility, and ease of use.The platform offers an out-of-the-box workflow that accelerates mass production and lets teams focus on their differentiating features.
Security is non-negotiable from software development through manufacturing and for long-term over-the-air (OTA) management.End-to-end security with signed artefacts and TUF-verified OTA updates protects devices for their full life-span.
Traceability and certification require auditable, immutable evidence of compliance.Every build is reproducible, automatically generates an SBOM, and is logged for lifecycle governance.
Fleet-wide root-CA and device-certificate rotation is complex and costly to engineer.Built-in tooling automates root-CA updates and periodic device-certificate rotations—no on-site intervention needed.
