Why SocketXP IoT Platform

Zero Trust Security

Zero Trust Security for all connecting devices and apps. All connecting devices and apps are authenticated using private keys and short-lived auth tokens.

SSO Login & MFA

SocketXP uses Multi Factor Authentication offered by your SSO providers such as Microsoft 365, G Suite to authenticate users during login.

Secure Tunnels

All data transmitted to our cloud gateway through SocketXP tunnels over the internet are SSL/TLS encrypted.

IP Whitelisting

Restrict access to your IoT devices by whitelisting the IP adddresses from which the devices could be accessed.

No Open Ports

HTTP Web Service Remote Access Demo

Watch this demo video to understand how SocketXP HTTP Web Service Remote Access solution works.

SocketXP provides two options to remotely access any private web service:

1. Create a SocketXP public web URL and expose the web app to the public internet.

2. Keep the web service private and secure. Remotely access it through SocketXP agent in slave mode using an auth token.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Do you have a free plan?

    Yes. We do have a generous free plan that comes with access to all our features, including premium features. No credit card is required. Free plan is valid for 30 days. To extend your free trial, corporate users logged in with your corporate email ID can write to us at: [email protected]. Upgrade to a paid plan is required after this period. Free plan usage is subject to our fair-use policy.

  • SocketXP uses SSL/TLS X.509 certificates and keys for encrypting data transmitted over the public internet from all endpoints to our cloud gateway. It is the same technology used by the banks and governments for exchanging confidential data over the internet.

    SocketXP does NOT expose your IoT device ports (TCP ports) directly to the internet through our cloud gateway, unlike other IoT remote access solutions in the market. Basically, SocketXP solution does NOT perform 'port-forwarding', like other vendors do. We enforce Zero Trust Security on all our access endpoints.

    SocketXP offers advanced security features such as short-lived authtokens that expire after a certain time period. These authtokens can be used only for a specific purpose such as device registration, device access, REST API access etc.

  • SocketXP Cloud Gateway is a massively scalable solution (>1M devices) that can dynamically scale based on demand. Each subscription plan comes with its own maximum limit.

  • SocketXP Cloud Gateway runs in the US-Central (Iowa) Region and Europe (Frankfurt, Germany) Region. Depending on where you are located in the globe, your access speed may vary. European customers are recommended to use the Europe gateway.

  • Yes. We can create a new instance of SocketXP Cloud Gateway in your geographic location for high-volume users. We can also install, support and manage dedicated on-prem or private cloud version of SocketXP IoT Cloud Gateway for your exclusive private use. Please write to us: [email protected]

  • If you are unable to connect to your device from the SocketXP web portal, it is either your device is powered down or it doesn't have a stable internet connection or a firewall setting is blocking SocketXP agent from connecting to our cloud gateway. Please check our troubleshooting guide for more tips on what you could next: https://docs.socketxp.com/guide/troubleshooting-guide.

  • Yes. You can purchase the software license of SocketXP IoT Device Management Platform for self-hosting. Please write to us: [email protected]

  • The error message "Invalid device key" could mean two things:

    1) You recently deleted the device from the web portal but the "device.key" file in the device at "/var/lib/socketxp" belongs to the previous registration. In that case, delete the stale "device.key" file and re-execute the SocketXP login command.

    2) You are a customer in the EU region but trying to connect your device with the SocketXP cloud gateway in the US region using the "device.key" obtained from the SocketXP cloud gateway in the EU region. Use "--region=eu" in ALL the commands to resolve this issue.

  • Most likely, the problem is, you have created more than one tunnel or service for the same endpoint: SSH port 22, in this case.

    Visit the SocketXP web portal, go to the devices section, click the Device ID to show the device details, scroll down to the bottom of the page to view the "services" or "tunnels" listed for this device. If you see more than one entries for port 22 (say for example: tcp://localhost:22, tcp://127.0.0.1:22, tcp://192.168.10.1:22), delete them just keep one entry. You should have only one service listed for each port.

    Also, check if the SocketXP agent is running on the device and the SSH server daemon status is active, up and running(Use the "sudo systemctl status sshd" linux command to check SSHd status).
