Riding a secure IoT wave
What’s been called the Third Wave of Computing — IoT — probably feels more like a tidal wave to the multitude of hardware, software, cloud, and other IoT-related manufacturers and service providers. That is, in part, because riding that wave is a lack of interoperability, ecosystem immaturity, data privacy, time-to-market, multiple technology choices, and the […]
