Internet of Things “refers to the billions of physical devices around the world that are now connected to the internet, all collecting and sharing data”. Connecting different objects adds an intelligence to the devices and communicate real-time data independent of human interference.
How to make sure your IoT devices don’t become tasty bait for data trawlers. Our previous blog where we examined how the net is full of security holes, in this blog we look at possible precautions against data trawlers.
As the internet of things (IoT) rolls out hackers have found ingenious ways of conning you out of your cash. Today we see how hackers can break into IoT kit, take control and then demand a ransom.
Software developers are building new cloud-based software with such ease that there are warnings of future headaches for IT teams responsible for infrastructure and operations. A recent Gartner study found that by 2025, 70% of IT infrastructure teams will be unable to support the business. Only ¼ of IT Infrastructure leaders would have teams with the right skills and working practices to support the requirements for IT operations.
Here at Serviceteam IT the team have written a lot about the Internet of Things (IoT). It seems to be everywhere. However, now there are an increasing number of reports which warn technology companies, governments and the insurance sector about cyber-security threats from the IoT. We all need to take an interest in how we can make sure this emerging technology of connected devices is safe to use.
The Internet of Things refers to objects that communicate with each other. Central heating, fridges, toasters and dog collars are being connected through the IoT. What is its impact on business and how many businesses are enhancing the use of IoT? This blog will give you all the information you need to know about AI and IoT in business.
I am sure that everyone has heard of Amazon Echo and Smart Watches such as the Fitbit. However, what is the Internet of Things? Lots of research focuses on IoT in business and commerce. This blog will answer the question: what can the IoT do for me?
Dog collars to toasters are connected as part of the Internet of Things (IoT), with experts predicting that by 2020 more than 50% of new businesses will run on the IoT. However, cyber security and privacy are the biggest challenges for IoT, collecting large amounts of personal identifiable information. As soon as some financial benefit from hacking smart devices appears, cyber criminals will find a way to take advantage of it.
