Cultivating a Healthier IoT Technology Ecosystem
Your choice of IoT technology is just as important as what you do with it, but selecting the right components and software may be tricky. For your framework to do its job and thrive under pressure, you need to consider how its aspects interact with each other and impact your mission. From keeping your data clean to simulation and establishing better baselines, here are three strategies for enhancing IoT technology health.
Sustainability Process Blueprint
The sustainability process blueprint employs a dynamic approach focusing on key metrics from which remotely monitored data is measured and cataloged in a format that provides insight. Under the Sustainability Process Blueprint, IoT devices will monitor, measure and catalog metrics around energy, air, and water to improve tracking and transparency in corporate sustainability.
The Top Five Reasons IoT Devices Will Malfunction in 2020
As consumers acquire and implement more interconnected IoT devices, the number of malfunctions is growing. The five distinct factors projected to increasingly contribute to the malfunctioning of smart devices this year include the operating environment, integration problems, device configuration, connectivity, and device load. At the center of resolving this problem? AI.
Five Things We’re Reading
1 — Business Insider: The FCC approved a full-scale commercial deployment of a shared spectrum platform on the 3.5 GHz CBRS band, clearing a path for full commercial utilization of the spectrum. CommScope, Federated Wireless, Google, and Sony were chosen to be SAS Administrators.
2 — Gizmodo: The UK announced new legislation aimed at protecting consumers who buy connected devices from hacking and other types of security risks. The law would require the makers of IoT devices to follow three security requirements including unique passwords, bug reporting and timely security updates.
3 — ZDNet: Honeywell and Verizon announced a partnership to integrate LTE connectivity into next-generation smart meters to speed up smart-grid deployments. Verizon’s Managed Connectivity LTE tools and Honeywell’s Smart Energy software/hardware stack will be integrated into the meters
4 — Dark Reading: According to a report released by IOActive, the LoRaWAN protocol is dangerously vulnerable to widespread attacks and compromise. To help organizations assess their vulnerability, IOActive has released an auditing framework consisting of penetration-testing and auditing tools for LoRaWAN infrastructure.
5 — Network World: Cisco introduced an IoT security architecture that provides visibility across both IT and OT environments and protects industrial processes. The solutions enable data to be collected and extracted at the edge so organizations can increase efficiencies to make better business decisions and accelerate digitization projects.
