Security for Intelligent, Connected IoT Edge Nodes

March 1, 2016

The Internet of Things (IoT) reflects one of the biggest technology waves to pass over in a couple of decades. With forecasts of as many as 50 billion connected devices in 2020, it has the potential to touch everything around us. The IoT will span industrial, commercial, medical, automotive, and other applications with consumer implementations having the potential to affect billions of people. Given the scope of individuals, institutions, and systems affected, security has risen to the top of the heap as a critical component in any IoT system, and it’s now widely recognized that any serious commercial IoT venture must include security for it to truly take hold.

The Industrial Internet of Things Networking Framework

whitePaper | August 3, 2022

The Internet of Things (IoT) fuses the digital realm with the real-world of objects and places and enables digital twins of them. These technologies drive innovation in application areas such as manufacturing, utilities, transportation, logistics and smart cities. The adoption of IoT technologies in industrial settings, known as Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), enables gathering and analysis of data across machines, physical assets and processes to improve the flexibility and efficiency of systems at reduced cost. IIoT will increase the productivity, shift economies, innovate business models and foster industrial growth: a digital transformation (DX).

Internet of Things (IoT) in the Federal Government

whitePaper | June 8, 2021

The Internet of Things is one of the most impactful IT innovations of our time. As consumers, we already encounter the IoT in our daily lives with smart items such as TVs, watches, and phones. As we journey further in time, IoT will become a ubiquitous aspect of life at home and in the workplace. Gartner defines the IoT as the network of physical objects that contain embedded technology to communicate and sense or interact with their internal states or the external environment.” More simply, IoT devices are computers (typically very small), that are embedded into an object to perform a function (e.g., collect data, run software) and connect to a network (e.g., the internet). For example, an IoT device could be an assembly line sensor capable of detecting minute deficiencies and determining when equipment needs repair.
