HOW IOT IS AFFECTING MOBILE APPS DEVELOPMENT
MOBILE AND IOT: A BEAUTIFUL LOVE STORY •
•
•
IoT is what helps the mobile app developers to bring about an optimized and customized approach when developing these apps. Apps are cost effective and it facilitates the ease of connection across different devices. The five tiers of IoT core architecture: –
Device : • •
–
Physical device that collects data. A piece of hardware that collects telemetry (data) about a given situation.
Gateway : •
Number of devices and interconnection options creates a web of complexity to connect the different devices and their data streams.
–
Gateway : •
–
•
Managing and converting data into information. Analytics are used to automate the process for two reasons: Manageability and Speed.
Application : •
Gateway
Data from gateways is collected and managed.

Number of devices and interconnection options creates a web of complexity to connect the different devices and their data streams.
An automation routine that interfaces with other applications as part of a larger function.

HOW DOES IT CONTRIBUTE TO AN UPCOMING BUSINESS? • Accommodate IoT with existing practices: – Policies, Procedures, & Standards – Awareness Training – Risk Management – Vulnerability Management – Forensics
• Plan for IoT growth: – Additional types of logging, log storage – Increased network traffic – Increased demand for IP addresses both IPv4 and IPv6 – Increased network complexity
EVOLUTION OF IOT •
•
•
There is around 40% increase in the people using Smartphones in the past 45 years. On an average, it is believed that more than 70% of Americans own a Smartphone, which is a tropical hike when compared with the usage in 2011, which was reported to be only 35%. More than 90% of Americans use mobile phones that can connect to the world wide web.
HOW CAN YOUR BUSINESS BENEFIT FROM THESE? •
As of 2013, 9.1 billion IoT units
•
Expected to grow to 28.1 billion IoT devices by 2020
•
Revenue growth from $1.9 trillion in 2013 to $7.1 trillion in 2020
•
It’s just another computer, right? – All of the same issues we have with access control, vulnerability management, patching, monitoring, etc. – Imagine your network with 1,000,000 more devices – Any compromised device is a foothold on the network
THREAT VS. OPPORTUNITY •
If misunderstood and misconfigured, IoT poses risk to our data, privacy, and safety
•
If understood and secured, IoT will enhance communications, lifestyle, and delivery of services
