What is the Internet of Things?
What are some reasons why the IoT can be exploited so easily in several cases are:
- Vulnerabilities in the devices. - Difficult or non-existing procedures to patch IoT devices. - A lack of awareness & support - Too much focus on saving costs in IoT projects and not investing in essential security controls. - Not enough attention for security overall
What are examples of early IoT?
ATMs, Traffic Monitoring, RFID Jeans!, Electronic Toll Collection
What is Things?
Anything that can be tagged or connected, from sensors and household appliances to tagged livestock.
What is Data?
Data is the glue of the Internet of Things, the first step towards action and intelligence.
What is Communication?
Devices get connected so they can communicate data and this data can be analyzed.
What is Connectivity?
Devices, sensors, need to be connected: to an item, to each other, to a process and to 'the Internet' or another network.
What is the Internet of Things (IoT)?`
How data is used from chips and sensors to drive various business processes, automate them, enable new applications and service customers in entirely new ways.
What is Action?
The consequence of intelligence. This can be manual action and automation.
What is Ecosystem?
The place of the Internet of Things from a perspective of other technologies, communities, goals and the picture in which IoT fits.
What is Intelligence?
The sensing capabilities in IoT devices and the intelligence gathered from data analytics (also artificial intelligence).
Fog Computing
extends the computing, network and storage capability of the cloud to the edge of the IoT network. for instance on oil rigs or in ships.
What are the reasons for the exponential growth of the Internet of Things?
- decreasing costs of storage processing and material the third platform with the cloud - smart (mobile) technologies/devices - Consumers
What are the 7 IoT characteristics?
Connectivity, Things, Data, Communication, Intelligence, Action, and Ecosystem.z
