Internet of Things accelerators and brakes

Main accelerators and brakes of the development of the Internet of Things

The main drivers of Internet of Things in the future will be:

 – 5G and the other technologies referenced: IoT solutions will be increasingly integrated into solutions that take advantage of all the data generated by the devices.   
 – Miniaturization and cheapening of integrated circuits (SoCs)
 – Integrative offers in the cloud.  The big players in Cloud Computing will be integrating IoT solutions into their offer of services and platforms
 – Free software applications 

And internet of Things` possible brakes:

  • Lack of standards, lack of interoperability solutions
  • Cybersecurity. More than a quarter of all cyberattacks against enterprises will be IoT-based by 2025, according to a  Gartner report.
  • Little regulatory development and little public aid
  • Lack of confidence of the general public in the face of the “Big Brother” that the IoT can suppose in their daily lives and fear of being spied on. 90% of consumers lack confidence in the security of IoT devices according to a Gemalto report, with the lack of privacy and unauthorized third parties being able to take control of IoT devices being the biggest concerns.
