2025-10-27 ASRock Industrial Leads the Future of Secure Edge AI Platforms
Taipei, Taiwan (October 27, 2025) – Industrial cybersecurity is essential to the future of smart infrastructure. Global frameworks such as the EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA), NIST, and NIS2 elevate security from an option to as a baseline requirement, reshaping expectations for trust and resilience. ASRock Industrial leads this transformation as the trusted pioneer in Secure Edge AI Platforms, delivering protection across every layer of ecosystem, from secure devices, deployment, and long-term operation, to internationally recognized certifications, supply chain transparency, and incident response readiness. Our leadership is further validated by being one of the first IPC vendors to achieve IEC 62443-4-1/4-2 certifications and obtain FIDO Device Onboard (FDO) certification, establishing ASRock Industrial as the benchmark for trusted, standards-based security in industrial computing. At ASRock Industrial, security is not a feature – it is our identity.
Secure Device
ASRock Industrial’s Secure Device provides multi-layered data protection by integrating TPM, secure boot, and other trusted technologies across its platforms, establishing a hardware-rooted chain of trust. Beyond secure boot, our platforms strengthen virtualization and I/O isolation to minimize attack surfaces in multi-tenant environments, protecting data and resources against increasingly complex threats. For sensitive workloads, we deliver runtime and memory protection, ensuring applications operate in a trusted state. At the same time, we accelerate cryptographic operations with AES-NI and SHA Extensions, safeguarding data privacy while maintaining performance at scale. Together, these layers form a multi-dimensional defense that makes our edge platforms resilient from power-on to real-time operation.
Secure Deployment
Building on this, we extend security seamlessly into deployment through Ai FDO, our flagship solution for zero-touched and trusted device onboarding. Based on the FIDO Alliance standard, Ai FDO is designed to simplify and secure the entire provisioning process by creating an automated, verifiable chain of trust, from factory production to field deployment. Once devices are powered on and connected, Ai FDO enables them to be securely registered, configured, and connected to the customer’s infrastructure without human intervention. This eliminates the risks of manual setup, accelerates time-to-deployment, and ensures every system begins its lifecycle in a trusted state. For industries deploying thousands of devices across factories, energy grids, or smart city projects, Ai FDO provides both stronger security and operational efficiency at scale.
Secure Operation
Deployment is only the beginning, trust must continue throughout operation and long-term maintenance. Security is reinforced by AiSafeguard, which strengthens resilience with deep cybersecurity defense for OT devices, applying Zero Trust principles and containerized architectures to enable peripheral device security management, application isolation, and real-time monitoring. This approach enhances governance, proactive defense, and overall resilience against increasingly sophisticated threats. AiSMA integrates the Redfish open standard into industrial computer remote management, supporting out-of-band (OOB) management with cryptographic hardening to ensure secure connectivity and control, even in large-scale distributed deployments. Together, these solutions ensure platforms remain resilient and secure throughout their entire lifecycle.
Certified to Lead
Our leadership is further validated by internationally recognized standards. ASRock Industrial has achieved IEC 62443-4-1/4-2 certifications, and is the first company to obtain FIDO Device Onboard (FDO) certification. These milestones reinforce our position as the benchmark for trusted, standards-based security in industrial computing. Certified under IEC 62443-4-1, ASRock Industrial adheres to a Secure Product Development Lifecycle, ensuring each phase from design to service undergoes rigorous risk assessments and testing to protect against evolving cyber threats.
James Lee, Chairman of ASRock Industrial stated, “Edge AI is transforming industries, but without security, it cannot be trusted. We are not following trends, we are setting them. By embedded security into every layer of our platforms, from hardware and deployment to lifecycle operations and supply chain transparency, ASRock Industrial gives industries the foundation they need to innovate and scale with confidence in the AI era.”
With these layered security measures, ASRock Industrial is setting a new standard for secure and scalable edge AI deployments across industries. For more details of our secure edge AI platforms, visit our Website or contact us via Product Inquiry.
