Study Notes
Introduction
- The Internet of Things (IoT) connects everyday physical objects to the internet, enabling them to gather, share, and analyze data without human intervention
- Devices include home appliances, fitness trackers, industrial machines, and vehicles
- IoT connects to various sectors like smart homes, healthcare, wearables, industry, manufacturing, smart cities, and agriculture
IoT Components
- Thing/Device: Contains sensors and actuators, collecting environmental data and acting based on collected sensor data
- Gateway: Gathers data from sensors and sends it to the cloud
- Cloud: A network of servers available 24/7, storing and processing data
- Analytics: Analyzing the collected data
- User Interface: User-end application for monitoring and controlling data
History
- IoT's origins trace back to the early 1960s with ARPANET, the forerunner of the modern internet
- In the 1970s, the concept of connecting computers and machines gained traction
- By 1980, local area networks (LANs) enabled real-time communication and data sharing
- A Coca-Cola vending machine in 1982, connected to the internet, provides an early example
- In 1999, Kevin Ashton introduced the term "Internet of Things"
- Radio-frequency identification (RFID) technology enabled tracking goods through supply chains
- Public interest in IoT boomed by 2008, with connected devices exceeding global population
Security and Privacy in IoT
- IoT devices are vulnerable to cyberattacks due to connectivity and data collection
- Weak authentication, shared network access, and limited device management pose security risks
- Multi-layered security approaches are vital for protecting sensitive data collected by IoT
- Multi-factor authentication, VPNs, and device management platforms can enhance security
- Regular updates help mitigate vulnerabilities
EU Regulation
- The EU established regulations, particularly GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation), to govern the collection, processing, and storage of personal data by IoT devices
- Explicit user consent is required for data collection, emphasizing user rights to data deletion
- The EU Cybersecurity Act (CSA) mandates cybersecurity standards for IoT devices, aiming to protect these devices placed on the market.
US Regulation
- The White House Initiative on IoT (2012) established guidelines for consumer privacy protection in the digital age
- Key principles include respect for context, individual control, transparency, and security
- The IoT Cybersecurity Improvement Act (2020) mandates specific security standards for government-purchased IoT devices
- General legislation covers different sectors of society, industry, and economy, often requiring specific legislation for each area
IoT in Various Sectors
- Healthcare: IoT aids in remote patient monitoring, early diagnosis, and improved medication management
- Agriculture: Optimizes farming practices using sensors and automation technologies for crop health, livestock observation, and irrigation systems
- Smart Cities: Enhances traffic management, environmental monitoring, energy efficiency, and predictive maintenance of infrastructure
