Actionable Benefits
- Explore an IoT-focused framework for Identity and Access Management bolstered with cloud, data, device and user-centric insights.
- Ascertain the key opportunities and challenges when tackling a hybrid version of IAM fused with both user and machine ID, IoT security and device management, along with cloud operations and data governance.
- Evaluate whether or not it matters to incorporate a version of IoT machine ID from devices, software, APIs and cloud platforms onto the existing user ID archetype of traditional IT IAM.
Research Highlights
- Cloud operations and management platforms, public key infrastructure and IoT device management, software tools, application programming interfaces, data security and governance are among the top technologies that could compliment a more inclusive framework of IoT IAM.
- However, it is important to understand that IoT IAM should not be confused with digital security options in IoT and a proper digital identity and access control framework needs to be incorporated that assists rather than hinders organizational expansion.
- Data analytics and intelligence operations, shadow IT, data governance, compliance and regulations, IoT device authentication and next-gen gateways among directory-as-a-service and managed IAM solutions are brought into the fray of IoT IAM, albeit with various degrees of success.
