Floodgate at Home features the Icon Labs suite of security products that provides device protection, management and incident reporting to home users and service providers via a secure web page. Floodgate at Home is an OEM software product licensed and embedded by manufacturers of Smart Home IoT devices.
Manufacturers can embed Floodgate in the tiny processor and communication chips found in Smart Home devices like thermostats, window alarms, temperature sensors, home health sensors, etc. Once the device is connected to the web, the end user, home system integrator or service provider sets up the security arrangement - limiting access to a few specific people, phone numbers, or the IP address of a specific laptop or tablet.
