Building IoT Devices to Operate for Modern IT Security Requirements

Cybersecurity has been, and remains, a hot topic for Internet of Things (IoT) device manufacturers, including the subcategory called Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). That is the focus of Industry 4.0. It is also a critical focus for IT networks. Enterprise cybersecurity is no longer just about securing PCs and servers. IoT devices are now pervasive, and every IT security plan must account for IoT devices. Likewise, IoT security is not simply about hardening IoT devices to ensure they are not easily hacked. IoT devices must “play nice” with enterprise cybersecurity solutions.
