 What is IoT?
• The Internet of things (IoT) is a system of interrelated computing devices, mechanical and
digital machines, objects, animals or people that are provided with unique identifiers ( UIDs )
and the ability to transfer data over a network without requiring human-to-human or human-to-
computer interaction - IoTAgenda
• A thing in the IoT can be a person with a heart monitor implant, a farm animal with a biochip
transponder, an automobile that has built-in sensors to alert the driver when tire pressure is low
or any other natural or man-made object that can be assigned an IP address and is able to
transfer data over a network.
 Why IoT?

 We are lazy

We want to automate everything

We want to control everything remotely

We want to see data in real-time

Benefits of IoT
IoT offers a number of benefits to organizations, enabling
them to:
1. Monitor their overall business processes;
2. Improve the customer experience;
3. Save time and money;
4. Enhance employee productivity;
5. Integrate and adapt business models;
6. Make better business decisions;
7. Generate more revenue.
Challenges
Security
How to ensure robust and
lifelong security in IoT
products and services?
Interoperability and
Standards
The voluntary use of open,
interoperable, and widely available
standards as technical building blocks
for IoT devices will deliver greater
benefits.
Privacy
Strategies need to be developed that
promote transparency, fairness, and user
choice in data collection and handling .
Regulatory, Legal, and
Rights Issues
The rapid rate of change in IoT
technology could outpace the
ability of associated policy, legal,
and regulatory structures to adapt.
Emerging Economy and
Development Issues
In order for the benefits of the IoT to be
truly global, the unique needs and
challenges of implementation in less-
developed regions will need to 6 be
addressed.

1990s 2000s
The IoT is Not New
Some everyday items have
been controlled over the
Internet since the early ‘90s.
2010s
Passive Engagement
Many connected devices are
designed to operate in the
background with minimal
human intervention.
Key Considerations
Paradigm Shift
How people and institutions interact with the
Internet in their personal, social, and
economic lives is changing.
Policy Areas Might
Benefit From a Review
Future
IoT devices will likely touch most
aspects of our lives, which
suggests policy makers will need
to consider the broad implications
across a wide array of areas.

Disadvantages of IoT
• Security: As the IoT systems are interconnected and communicate
over networks. The system offers little control despite any security
measures, and it can be lead the various kinds of network attacks.
• Privacy: Even without the active participation on the user, the IoT
system provides substantial personal data in maximum detail.
• Complexity: The designing, developing, and maintaining and
enabling the large technology to IoT system is quite complicated.
• Analyzing the technological progress
of recent decades, we can
confidently say that humanity is
moving towards the introduction of
the IoT concept into life.
• IoT can help innovate new process
and initiatives that could transform
businesses, lives and the world.
• But when we can live in a 'smart'
city and enjoy all the advantages of
smart gadgets is a matter of time.
