ISG’s report highlighted Bosch’s Connected Products and IoT Solutions as a one-stop-shop for engineering and IoT-led digital transformation, leveraging the company's manufacturing and technology capabilities. Bosch offers customizable, end-to-end security solutions for IoT that include embedded/on-chip device security and secure firmware updates over the air.

Increasingly we find ourselves in engagements with large enterprises on their product digitalization journey – essentially making products smart, connected and intelligent – and helping them to monetize the value created by combining insights, service and experience to improve market share and customer loyalty”, said Digant Shah, Group President- Bosch Software and Digital Solutions.

Ron Exler, Director and Principal Analyst, ISG Research said "Bosch is positioned well for the resurgence of interest from enterprises around the world in the Internet of Things (IoT) and its manufacturing counterpart, the Industrial IoT (IIoT). In the U.S., the company leverages its manufacturing expertise in the expansion of its IoT engineering and digital transformation service offerings.
