“As a strategic partner to our customers, our mission is to provide them with the tools and scalable services they need to ensure their devices are not only compliant but equipped with highest level of security that their product classification requires,” said Romain Tesniere, Business Development Manager Connectivity & Security at Avnet Silica.

“Handling device management and provisioning within our facility gives customers full control of what and how the provisioning is done. Our scalable solutions, whether in-house, on the production line, or directly in the field, help bridge the gap between the vast range of tools offered by our trusted suppliers and the specific needs of our customers.”
