3 Top IoT “security” Architectures and How to Fix Them

May 23, 2019

Is there a perfect IoT security architecture outside? I’m pretty sure there isn’t. And I’m not alone in this opinion. Also, the European Union Agency For Network and Information Security (ENISA) did an analysis on this topic and found at least 8 different architecture, you can have a closer look on the publication in my previous article Industry Best Practice for IoT Security (PDF). Are there bad IoT security architectures? I’m pretty sure there are! Sounds quite strange, isn’t it? No! The key in security architectures is, you can easily prove whether something will protect your iot system from a specific attack but you can not prove whether you have foreseen all possible attacks. By the way, it is exactly the same for bug hunting in software.

The Internet of Things-Enabled Smart City Framework, or IES-City Framework

Infographic | January 15, 2020

Two barriers currently exist to effective and powerful smart city solutions. First, many current smart city ICT deployments are based on custom systems that are not interoperable, portable across cities, extensible, or cost-effective. Second, a number of architectural design efforts are currently underway (e.g. ISO/IEC JTC1, IEC, IEEE, ITU and consortia) but have not yet converged, creating uncertainty among stakeholders. There is a lack of consensus on both a common language/taxonomy and smart city architectural principles.
