 Overview of Internet of Things

 The most important features of IoT include artificial intelligence, connectivity, sensors,
active engagement, and small device use. A brief review of these features is given
below:
 AI − IoT essentially makes virtually anything “smart”, meaning it enhances every aspect
of life with the power of data collection, artificial intelligence algorithms, and networks.
 Connectivity − New enabling technologies for networking and specifically IoT
networking, mean networks are no longer exclusively tied to major providers.
 Sensors − IoT loses its distinction without sensors. They act as defining instruments
that transform IoT from a standard passive network of devices into an active system
capable of real-world integration.
 Active Engagement − introduces a new paradigm for active content, product, or
service engagement

 What is IoT?
 According to the Internet Architecture Board’s (IAB) definition, IoT is
the networking of smart objects, meaning a huge number of devices
intelligently communicating in the presence of internet protocol that
cannot be directly operated by human beings but exist as components
in buildings, vehicles or the environment.
 According to the IEEE Communications category magazine’s
definition, IoT is a framework of all things that have a representation in
the presence of the internet in such a way that new applications and
services enable the interaction in the physical and virtual world in the
form of Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication in the cloud.
IoT= Services+ Data+ Networks + Sensors

 History of IoT

 The Internet of Things, as a concept, wasn’t officially named until 1999. One
of the first examples of an Internet of
 Things is from the early 1980s and was a Coca Cola machine, located at the
Carnegie Melon University. By the year 2013, the Internet of Things had
evolved into a system using multiple technologies, ranging from the Internet
to wireless communication and from micro-electromechanical systems
(MEMS) to embedded systems

 IoT − Advantage
 Improved Customer Engagement − Current analytics suffer from blind-spots
and significant flaws inaccuracy; and as noted, engagement remains passive.
 Technology Optimization − The same technologies and data which improve
the customer experience also improve device use, and aid in more potent
improvements to technology
 Reduced Waste − IoT makes areas of improvement clear
 Enhanced Data Collection − Modern data collection suffers from its
limitations and its design for passive use.
Continuous monitoring and analyzing customer engagement metrics are
essential to understand what strategies work best for your audience and to
make necessary adjustments for ongoing improvement.

 IoT – Disadvantages

Here is a list of some of the disadvantages of IoT. these are:

 As the number of connected devices increases and more information is
shared between devices, the potential that a hacker could steal confidential
information also increases.
 If there’s a bug in the system, it’s likely that every connected device will
become corrupted.
 Since there’s no international standard of compatibility for IoT, it’s difficult for
devices from different manufacturers to communicate with each other.
 Enterprises may eventually have to deal with massive numbers maybe even
millions of IoT devices and collecting and managing the data from all those
devices will be challenging.
6
 Challenges of IoT
 Security − IoT creates an ecosystem of constantly connected devices
communicating over networks. The system offers little control despite
any security measures. This leaves users exposed to various kinds of
attackers.
 Privacy − The sophistication of IoT provides personal data without
the user's active participation.
 Complexity − Some find IoT systems complicated in terms of design,
deployment, and maintenance
 Compatibility − several conflicting or locking systems.  Compliance
− IoT, like any other technology in the realm of business, must
comply with regulations.

 How does IoT works?

 An IoT ecosystem consists of web-enabled smart devices that use embedded processors,
sensors and communication hardware to collect, send and act on data they acquire from
their environments.
 IoT devices share the sensor data they collect by connecting to an IoT gateway or another
edge device where data is either sent to the cloud to be analyzed or analyzed locally.
Keep in mind that IoT encompasses a vast ecosystem, and the specifics of
how it operates can vary depending on the type of devices, applications,
and use cases involved.

8
 Architecture of IoT

 In general, an IoT device can be explained as a network of things

that consists of hardware, software, network connectivity, and
sensors. Hence, the architecture of IoT devices comprises four
major components: sensing layer, network layer, data processing
layer, and application layer

9
 Architecture of IoT
 The architecture of the Internet of Things (IoT) comprises various layers and components that
work together to enable the connection, communication, and functionality of IoT devices. This
architecture typically includes the following layers.
 Perception Layer/Sensing Layer:-This layer involves sensors, actuators, RFID tags, and other
devices that collect data from the physical environment
 Network Layer:-his layer involves the communication infrastructure that allows the transfer of
data between IoT devices. It includes protocols (like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Zigbee, LoRa, cellular
networks, etc.)
 Middleware Layer:-This layer acts as an intermediary between the perception layer and the
application layer. It involves components like gateways, protocol converters, and data
preprocessing modules.
 Application Layer:-his layer encompasses applications and services that analyze data received
from IoT devices to derive meaningful insights and provide services based on this information.

 Devices and Networks

 Connected devices are part of a scenario in which every device talks to other
related devices in an environment to automate home and industrial tasks,
and to communicate usable sensor data to users, businesses and other
interested parties.
 IoT devices are meant to work in concert for people at home, in industry or in
the enterprise. As such, the devices can be categorized into three main
groups: consumer, enterprise and industrial.

11
 IoT Tools and Platforms

There are many vendors in the industrial IoT platform marketplace, offering
remarkably similar capabilities and methods of deployment. They can be
used in areas of smart home, city, enterprise, home automation, healthcare
or automotive, just to name a few. For instance.
 KAA
 Site Where
 Thing Speak
 Device Hive
 Zetta
 Things Board

o Intrusion Detection Systems:- Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are security tools designed to
monitor networks or systems for malicious activity or policy violations. They analyze network traffic
or system behavior and generate alerts or take action when they detect any signs of unauthorized
access, misuse, or potential threats.
o Remote Control Appliances:- Controlling appliances remotely has become increasingly
popular with the advancement of technology. Here are several ways to remotely control appliances
