M2M/IoT Cellular Data Security

Historically most M2M communications were focused around proprietary protocols, private networks, leased lines and POTS. Some systems have moved to local LANs and TCP/IP. Now they are moving to Internet access and cellular connectivity. Most efforts to date are focused on just getting things to work with only minimal consideration to overall system security. The communications environment for the M2M/IoT industry has changed and is continuing to change rapidly. With the introduction of the Internet into the equation, the security environment has become very treacherous. Considering all of the very interesting things that are already being connected, let alone all the things that have yet to be imagined, the number of very intelligent and determined people that will attempt to gain un-authorized access to absolutely everything, for both malicious and benign reason, will multiply rapidly.

Industrial Internet of Thing

whitePaper | January 2, 2020

The brief report provides a positioning of developments in the area referred to as Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) – loosely interpreting this as the industrial developments associated with the Internet of Things (IoT). IoT in turn describes the extension of the application of internet communications beyond computers and networked devices to also include the networking of everyday objects. In the context of industrial operations these objects are typically equipment, products and raw materials.
