Mender

Mender provides secure and customizable over-the-air (OTA) software updates for smart products. With nearly a decade of experience, the company has supported over a million devices worldwide, demonstrating a strong track record with Fortune 1000 clients. Mender is developed and maintained by Northern.tech.

Established in 2008, Northern.tech is a leading provider of device lifecycle management solutions, dedicated to ensuring the security of connected devices worldwide. The company has been a leader in enterprise technology management long before lloT and loT became buzzwords. Northern.tech is the company behind CFEngine, the pioneer in server configuration management, to automate large-scale IT operations and compliance. In 2015, Northern.tech released the first version of Mender. Continuing its leadership in loT device management, Northern.tech most recently released Alvaldi, a loT remote access solution. Alvaldi allows OEMs to remotely troubleshoot their loT fleet in a secure and effective way.

1NCE-supported devices can use Mender for OTA software update management through the Mender Firmware Over-the-Air Management plugin. With Mender enabled, leverage the infrastructure and features to safely and securely deploy and manage software updates across device fleets. Prioritizing compliance with regulations like the EU Cyber Resilience Act, the plugin ensures a streamlined process for continuous firmware updates, bringing trust to communication, data integrity, and authenticity.
