Internet of Things Solutions, Business Opportunities, and IoT Forecasts 2015 - 2020

The Internet of Things (IoT) is poised to fundamentally transform M2M communications, global IT support systems, and business processes in virtually every industry vertical. IoT will significantly impact wireless (short range and macro networks), network signaling, authentication, and data management systems.
Embedded systems will also be at the cornerstone for IoT deployment, especially within Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) applications. Data generated through sensors embedded in various things/objects will generate massive amounts of unstructured (big) data on real-time basis that holds the promise for intelligence and insights for dramatically improved decision processes.
Accordingly, there is an emerging significant business opportunity for Cloud Service Providers and Big Data Analytics within IoT. There is an increasingly urgent need for end-to-end security for IoT systems and services as Publisher anticipates that their intrusions will become increasingly impactful leading to the potential for operational disruption, industrial espionage, damage to enterprise assets, and even potential physical harm to human beings.
