Kudelski IoT’s Matter Product Attestation Certificate Service enables companies to get scalable access to Device Attestation Certificates, letting them join the Matter ecosystem with confidence and ease. We can also be your strategic security partner throughout your entire product lifecycle.
Matter certificates create trust and guard consumers against counterfeit devices that might claim to have Matter certification but don’t, or that claim to be from that brand but are not. They enable secure device-to-device and device-to-cloud communications so that consumer data and privacy are protected. Matter 1.0 specifically requires the use of Device Attestation Certificates (DACs).
We manage that complexity for you so you can focus on product innovation and sales, and our ability to deliver at volume creates cost efficiency and scalability for your business.

What devices are subject to Matter certification? What is a Matter x.509 Certificate? Who is part of the Matter protocol? Learn more about Matter with our Q&A below!
Devices that are certified by Matter means they are part ofa trusted ecosystem that ensures they are secure, reliable and seamless to use.Matter devices recognize one another as inherently trustworthy because theyhave been through a certification process that ensures they are safe, at Matterprotocols also ensure interoperability by allowing devices and personalassistants like Amazon Alexa, Apple Siri and the Google Personal Assistant canall communicate with each other, making life for consumers much easier.
Matter certification’s goal is to make devices easier and safer to use by getting rid of fragmentation across different companies, and to create interoperability among smart home devices and Internet of things (IoT) platforms from different providers.
The Connectivity Standards Alliance (CSA) announced Version 1.0 of the specification on October 4, 2022. The Matter specification is provided at no charge upon request after registering with CSA. The Matter SDK is open source under the Apache license.
After completing the steps described by CSA, device manufacturers will receive an Certified Product Logo they can use on their product. These steps include reading the CSA Policies and Governing Documents, becoming a member of CSA, obtaining a Manufacturer ID or Vendor ID, selecting a compliant platform or network transport, choosing a CSA-authorized testing provider, sending products to be tested, completing and submitting a certification application, and waiting on formal approval from CSA.
Matter certification allows any connected device manufacturer to show their commitment to interoperability and quality. Matter-certified devices will include lights, home appliances, security systems, security cameras, and a wide variety of other consumer electronics devices.
Matter certificates create trust and guard consumers against counterfeit devices that might claim to have Matter certification but don’t, or that claim to be from that brand but are not. They enable secure device-to-device and device-to-cloud communications so that consumer data and privacy are protected.
Certificates must comply with the Matter standard and must be issued by a Matter-approved certificate authority. There are multiple certificate authorities, including Kudelski IoT, providing such certificates. Kudelski IoT also provides a wide variety of other services including IoT security architecture and design, IoT security technologies, IoT
Matter 1.0 specifically requires the use of Device Attestation Certificates (DACs). This ensures that the authenticity and integrity of connected home devices are attested (proven) before they are allowed to join and be used within a network.
The X.509 certificate is defined by the International Telecommunication Union's Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T). It is a digital certificate that uses the widely accepted international X.509 public key infrastructure (PKI) standard to verify that a public key belongs to the user, computer or service identity contained within the certificate.
A public key is a large numerical value used to encrypt data or check the legitimacy of a digital signature. A PKI, moreover, is the underlying framework that enables entities like users and servers to securely exchange information using digital certificates.
The Matter DAC X.509 certificate protects against malicious device and network impersonators. When a certificate is signed by a Device Attestation Authority, the device holding the certificate can be trusted by the entire ecosystem by using a public key certificate to secure and authenticate communications with a second party.
Curious to know whether the effort and investment of making your devices complaint to the Matter IoT standard is worth it for you as a device manufacturer? For most consumer electronics manufacturers, the answer is likely to be yes. Here are the reasons why:
Initially, Matter was developed by some of the leading companies in technology, including Amazon, Apple, Google, Samsung and Comcast. There are over 400 companies in the Connectivity StandardsAlliance, representing some of the most well-known players in IoT. Membership is divided between Promoters, Participants, Adopters and Associates.
The main goals of Matter are simplicity, interoperability, reliability and security. All Matter-compliant devices will work together no matter which brand makes them. Matter also promises three major benefits for consumers: greater choice in the products and ecosystems they can use, a simplified user experience (in terms of setup, security, and more), and lower costs (because of greater efficiencies in engineering, manufacturing, and more by not having to support multiple “works with” programs).
Matter’s authorized testing laboratories follow standardized testing plans and criteria and provide consistent, trustworthy results across all companies they work with. This way, device manufacturers get quick certification on well-made devices and good, clear advice on how to achieve compliance for devices that require improvement.
