The professional and scalable solution for your update and device management

phyHUB provides you with a central interface for conveniently monitoring, managing, and updating your devices in the field. You save yourself the hassle of building your own update infrastructure and instead benefit from a professional and scalable solution developed in partnership with ML!PA for industrial series production. This allows your development team to focus on what truly creates value for you.

  • CRA-enabled update management
  • Less infrastructure effort
  • Including care and securityServices

Why professional update management is becoming indispensable

Once embedded devices are in the field, the effort, responsibility and documentation requirements increase.
Updates must be securely distributed, device statuses tracked, and regulatory requirements met.
phyHUB provides relief where manual processes and in-house developments reach their limits.

Regulation increased
the update pressure

Regulatory requirements such as the
CRAs are making update capabilities mandatory.
and increased the pressure to prove

Self-hosting binds
Operating capacities

Operation, maintenance and security of the
Platforms require a continuous effort,
which permanently ties up resources.

Equipment fleets will
difficult to oversee

Without a central platform, there is no overview.
about versions, update status and
Security gaps in the field.

Specialized knowledge becomes
Project risk

Regulatory requirements such as the
CRAs are making update capabilities mandatory.
and increased the pressure to prove

In-house development costs
development time

To develop a custom update solution
ties up experienced developers for months
and delays your product.

Municipal enterprise must
be certifiable

Certifications such as ISO 27001
or IEC 62443 bring additional
Requirements for operation and documentation.

How phyHUB solves these challenges

Central platform for your fleet of devices

Holistic cybersecurity consulting for embedded systems – from the
Concept support from Secure by Design to risk-based
Analysis and retrofitting of existing designs.

Secure updates throughout the entire lifecycle

Meet regulatory requirements such as the Cyber ​​Resilience Act. phyHUB helps you to provide updates in a traceable manner and to document the long-term health of your devices.

No dedicated update infrastructure is required.

Avoid the costly development of your own update solution. phyHUB provides a proven platform, allowing your team to focus on your product.

Operation and hosting already covered

phyHUB is operated and maintained by PHYTEC. You don't have to worry about infrastructure, scaling, or security updates – but retain the option of your own environment if needed.

Flexible and adaptable to your requirements

In cooperation with MLIPA, additional functions, integrations or special processes for your update management can be implemented – tailored to your processes and systems.

Compatible with various hardware

phyHUB is not limited to a specific platform. The solution can be used with PHYTEC hardware as well as with other devices, provided the technical requirements are met.

Pproven in practice in the field

phyHUB is based on ML!PA's OTA and device management technology, which is already being used in industrial IoT and embedded projects.

Expandable with PHYTEC softwareServices


Additional components from the PHYTEC ecosystem can be easily integrated into the phyHUB platform. With our CVE monitoring, we monitor the SBOM of your Products and display relevant vulnerabilities directly within the context of the affected devices in phyHUB. With our Software Lifecycle Management, we continuously maintain your individual BSPs and provide updated versions with resolved CVEs as needed, which you can then deploy selectively via phyHUB. All components are modular, allowing you to use phyHUB, CVE monitoring, and SLCM separately or in combination, depending on your requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. phyHUB is not exclusively limited to PHYTEC hardware. The solution can also be used with other embedded hardware, provided the technical requirements are met. Crucially, the target system must support the necessary update mechanisms and integrate seamlessly into the update process.
PHYTEC will work with you to assess whether your existing platform is suitable and what adjustments are necessary. This makes phyHUB suitable for both new projects and existing fleets of devices that need to be retrofitted with professional update management.

You don't need to delve deeply into Yocto or Linux to use phyHUB productively. phyHUB is designed to simplify complex update processes and make them centrally controlled.
Naturally, the technical integration is based on embedded Linux and Yocto components, depending on the system. However, PHYTEC supports you with the setup, integration, and customization. Therefore, your team doesn't need to develop the entire update infrastructure in-house or maintain in-depth specialist knowledge permanently.

The scope of licensing and support depends on your project, your fleet of devices, and the desired features. Services. Typically, phyHUB includes not only the use of the platform, but also support with integration, operation, maintenance and further development.
Depending on the agreement, this includes technical consulting, support during commissioning, assistance with update scenarios, and support for questions regarding the platform, device connectivity, and update processes. This way, you receive not just a tool, but a supported solution for the long-term operation of your devices in the field.

phyHUB is designed to grow with your needs in the long term. If your hardware platform, operating system, or product strategy changes later, the solution can be adapted accordingly.
A platform change typically involves a technical review and, if necessary, adjustments to integration, update mechanisms, or device interfaces. The advantage: You don't start from scratch, but can build upon an existing update management structure.

Yes. Individual customizations are possible and an important part of many phyHUB projects. Depending on requirements, additional functions, integrations, workflows, or project-specific requirements can be implemented.
This can include, for example, interfaces to existing systems, special release processes, customized update logic, customer-specific dashboards, or special requirements for documentation and traceability. PHYTEC supports you from the technical assessment to implementation.
