SECURE THE INTERNET TO UNLEASH THE FULL VALUE OF IOT
Per Johansson , General Manager , Robert Bosch Middle East FZE , talks to us about the Internet of Things ( IoT ) and how organisations and individuals can realise the full potential and value of IoT technologies .
The Internet of Things ( IoT ) is
changing how we live , work and get around . Our homes are becoming smarter , factories more productive and even mobility solutions are taking on new forms .
Spending on IoT technologies in the Middle East and Africa ( MEA ) is set to top US $ 8.47 billion this year according to a recent IDC report . However , the full potential of IoT only comes alive when billions of connected devices securely and safely provide rich data – ideally in real-time to responsible organisations that can adapt and remotely control this increasingly dynamic physical infrastructure . Much more than technological transformation , IoT is creating new types of businesses , centred around services and user experience , which will have a massive impact on how organisations are structured and how we work together .
However , the IoT world is growing and getting more complicated as the technologies linking devices and the devices themselves , are becoming smaller , cheaper and faster .
