Microvisor
Microvisor Public Beta
Microvisor is in a pre-release phase and the information contained in this document is subject to change. Some features referenced below may not be fully available until Microvisor’s General Availability (GA) release.
Twilio Microvisor is a sophisticated new solution to the unique challenges posed to developers by Internet of Things (IoT) product design:
- How you can ensure your devices will always be protected against an exponentially increasing number of attack vectors.
- How you can ensure your devices will always be protected for their entire operational lives.
- How you can keep device software up to date at sites where end-users may be unwilling or unable to perform this crucial task.
- How you can diagnose issues with devices that may be located in a different country, in another continent or even in motion.
This page is your Microvisor development jump table — it will take you to everything you need to know to begin designing your own Microvisor-based device and developing its application code. It offers a helping hand when you need assistance nailing down solutions to development or deployments problems.
