Secure By Design, Secure For Life: Kudelski Labs Showcases Security for Frontier Technologies at electronica 2026
Live demonstration to feature autonomous robotic quadruped, KLARQ, showing secure Edge AI in action
CHESEAUX-SUR-LAUSANNE, Switzerland, and PHOENIX (AZ), USA — November 9, 2026 — Kudelski Labs, the innovation arm of the Kudelski Group, will showcase its latest embedded, edge AI, and device lifecycle security solutions at electronica 2026, November 10–13 at Messe München in Germany. Visitors can meet the team at Hall C6, Stand 114, with additional demonstrations on the Microchip stand (C5.121).
Through live demonstrations and two speaking sessions, Kudelski Labs will show how device manufacturers can secure frontier technologies and build trust into embedded systems, edge AI and autonomous robotics, while managing device identity, updates and credentials throughout a product’s operational life, and meeting regulatory compliance.
“As AI moves into devices that sense, decide and act in the physical world, trust must be built into every layer of the system,” said Christophe Nicolas, Senior Vice President of Kudelski Labs. “At electronica, we’ll demonstrate how manufacturers can establish that foundation and maintain control over their products throughout their lifecycle, demonstrating that secure by design means secure for life.”
The Kudelski Labs showcase at electronica will highlight:
- Edge AI and Robotics Security: KLARQ, Kudelski Labs’ autonomous robotic quadruped, brings the security challenges of physical AI to life. The demonstration will show how security can be built into autonomous products from the silicon up turning an off-the-shelf robot into a trusted, secure, autonomous system. Powered by the Kudelski Labs Backpack, KLARQ brings together two technologies:
- On-device intelligence from Axelera AI’s Metis® AIPU: Perception and AI inference run on the robot itself in real-time; decisions are made at the edge, not in the cloud, making them faster, with less data leaving the device;
- Device security powered by keySTREAM: Kudelski Labs’ award-winning platform, that gives each device its own identity and lifetime trust, managing device security from first activation through to every update for the rest of its life.
- Post-Quantum Readiness and Compliance with Regulatory Requirements: Kudelski Labs’ latest developments in on-chip security for post-quantum cryptography (PQC) and compliance include:
- Kudelski Secure Enclave (KSE), Kudelski Labs’ PQC-ready hardware root-of-trust security IP
- Security Labs & Compliance Fast-Track offering independent evaluation, side-channel testing and Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) readiness to ensure secure-by-design products.
- Industry & Partner Collaborations: Kudelski Labs will highlight collaboration with Microchip. The integration of Microchip TrustMANAGER with Kudelski Labs’ keySTREAM enables secure in-field provisioning and ongoing credential management, helping manufacturers establish device identity and manage trust after deployment.
- Award-Winning Device Lifecycle Security: Named “IoT Device Security Solution of the Year” in the 10th annual CyberSecurity Breakthrough Awards, keySTREAM gives devices a unique, hardware-anchored identity and manages security from provisioning through retirement. The SaaS platform supports remote attestation, secure firmware updates and credential renewal without requiring manufacturers to operate their own public-key infrastructure.
At the Forum
Christophe Nicolas will discuss trust and cyber resilience for embedded systems and edge AI in two sessions of the electronica Forum Program on the Future Tech Stage in Hall C6:
- CyberSecurity Forum: “Building Trust in Frontier Technologies: Cyber Resilience for Edge AI” on Tuesday, November 10, 11:45 a.m.–12:05 p.m.
- Embedded Developer Forum: “Securing Edge AI by Design: Practical Trust Foundations for Modern Embedded Systems” on Friday, November 13, 10:40–11:00 a.m.
