CUJO AI is the global leader in the establishment and application of artificial intelligence to enhance the security, control, and privacy of connected devices announces its newest patented Device Identification solution which will be capable to fully recognize and safeguard devices that use MAC address randomization.

The CUJO AI portfolio is planned to obtain a clear intuition on how data moves over networks and to digitally safeguard people and generating a safer smart-living experience in homes, businesses, and connected communities. CUJO AI portfolio of products is being utilized by the network, mobile, and public Wi-Fi operators around the world. They will allow the users with advanced connected device identification, perfectly integrated suite of value-added services, privacy protection, covering network monitoring and protection, real-time network security, content access control, and digital parenting.

Apple introduced a version of MAC randomization called “Private Wi-Fi Address”, which by default hides a device’s true MAC address. This latest version of iOS generates issues for network operators because many of their device management and policy systems depend on the true MAC address.

The newest patented Device Identification solution of CUJO AI’s permits network operators to effectively identify and de-duplicate devices with a high degree of correctness. Without compromising end-user privacy it authorizes operators to continue providing access to network services. CUJO’s solution permits operators to support the industry-leading device identification solution for their internal customer processes. 

CUJO AI’s patented device identification solution supports the following:

  • To ensure CUJO AI and other Network Operator services remain uninfluenced, quick and precise device identification and de-duplication capability are executed.
  • The policies are not by chance applied to the wrong devices i.e. ultra-low false-positive results.
  • The solution is executed in the CUJO AI managed cloud service so no software update is needed for routers.
  • The customer device list remains unchanged in CUJO AI-enabled services. The device with a new random MAC is integrated with the existing “known” device.
  • CUJO AI allows Network Operators the details to ensure their workflows that depend on knowing the true MAC addresses of a device remain unaffected.

Santeri Kangas, CTO of CUJO AI stated that the platform is developed to allow rapid AI-powered device detection, identification, and classification. The whole team is always working on product upgrades to resolve the reliability problems and biggest connectivity. The patented Device Identification solution labels the challenges brought by the randomized addresses. They feel urged to generate safer and smarter environments for people and all their connected devices which means blocking more threats than any legacy solutions.
