Connected devices are the heart of the Internet of Things (IoT). Without those devices or the connectivity that brings them to life, the IoT simply wouldn’t exist. Gartner Research estimates that there are currently 6.4 billion connected devices in use and projects that the number will balloon to 20.8 billion by 2020.

In a guide from O’Reilly Media, you’ll understand the requirements needed to connect networked devices – from prototyping to scaling IoT for the enterprise. Download the guide and you’ll learn:

• The unique security challenge for connected devices in the IoT
• The difference between local devices, devices on the edge of the IoT, and devices in the cloud
• How to prototype and what is needed to plan for scale
• What to consider when designing the prototype
• How to address the key life-cycle activities of a connected device

IoT security presents unique challenges to every party involved in the process – from device manufacturers and product development managers to application developers and end users. The top challenges to effective IoT security are directly related to the benefits of the IoT itself: the lack of human intervention needed for thousands of smart, connected devices to operate and the variety of devices that can be connected. This new whitepaper by Rob Black, CISSP, Senior Director of Product Management at PTC, addresses IoT security best practices at the device and application level, such as:

• Data and network traffic encryption
• Audit trails
• Granular permissions and visibility
• Secure software development life cycle (SDLC)

Before IoT, applications worked using a "request and response" design where information flows in one direction. Now with the emergence of IoT, applications need to be able to flow data both ways and be able to learn from the incoming data to make improvements on-the-fly.

This report will provide you with insight into how applications must now be developed to cater to an IoT world and how you can incorporate machine learning to facilitate IoT data interpretation.

The Internet of Things (IoT) is transforming how we do business, and the challenge for many companies is to know where to begin. This report examines various features organizations should expect in an IoT platform, as well as the key attributes you should be looking for when choosing a platform vendor.

The author, Matthew Perry, explains what an industrial-grade IoT platform ideally should include, from bidirectional connectivity and distributed computing to availability, scalability, and reliability. You’ll also learn how to assess your IoT strategy and find a vendor that can fulfill your specific needs.
