Definitions and Fundamentals
The unabbreviated form of IoT
What is the Internet of Things
This issue happens when personal information is shared without permission.
What is Data Privacy?
This security method ensures only trusted devices and people access sensitive information.
What is Zero Trust?
This helps devices act quickly by reducing the time it takes to send data back and forth.
What is Reduced Latency?
This happens when IoT devices don’t have proper protection like strong passwords or updates.
What is Device Vulnerability?
This term refers to performing computations locally on devices rather than relying on cloud servers.
What is Edge Computing?
This term refers to organizations being transparent about what data they collect and how it is processed.
What is Data Transparency?
This trend shifts from cloud storage, giving people control over their own data.
What is Decentralization?
This advantage enhances data protection by keeping sensitive information processed and stored locally.
What is Improved Privacy and Data Security?
This method of security asks users for multiple proofs of identity to keep data safe.
What is Multi-Factor Authentication?
This involves interconnected devices on a network that exchange data autonomously to achieve a goal.
What is the Internet of Things? (IoT)
This allows people to decide what data they want to share with their devices.
What is User Consent?
These wearable devices will keep improving healthcare by providing real-time data about a person’s health.
What are Smart Wearables?
Allows real-time decisions to be made at the device level rather than in a centralized system.
What is Efficient Local Data Processing?
This ensures that data is protected while being sent to and from IoT devices.
What is Secure Data Transfer?
These are devices like gateways or mini data centers that process data locally at the edge.
What are Edge Devices?
This technique addresses privacy by processing data to prevent exposure of sensitive information.
What is Privacy-Preserving Data Processing?
This problem occurs when data is spread across multiple devices, making it hard to manage.
What is Data Fragmentation?
This advantage allows businesses to scale IoT systems efficiently without high cloud costs.
What is Reduced Cost and Increased Scalability?
Government Exploitation of IoT for mass surveillance without user consent.
What is Surveillance & Government
What are the 3 Main Networks used by the IoT?
What is WiFi, Bluetooth, and Cellular?
This issue stems from government surveillance using IoT, potentially violating civil rights.
What is Surveillance and Smart Policing?
This technology enables devices to make smart AI-driven decisions without distant servers.
What is AI at the Edge?
This benefit optimizes network use by sending only relevant data to the cloud.
What is Bandwidth Efficiency?
This technology lets people control who sees their data in an IoT system.
What is Blockchain?
