QKS Group's Vision for the Future of IoT and Edge Computing Solutions

The Internet of Things (IoT) market has undergone significant growth, becoming a cornerstone of technological transformation across industries. IoT refers to the interconnection of physical devices, sensors, and systems that communicate over the internet, enabling the collection, sharing, and analysis of data. The proliferation of IoT devices is expected to grow exponentially, driven by advancements in cloud computing, artificial intelligence (AI), and the need for real-time data insights. It has found applications across diverse industries, including manufacturing, healthcare, logistics, retail, and smart cities, with edge computing increasingly complementing IoT deployments by addressing the limitations of cloud-based architectures. IoT Market Overview IoT’s rapid expansion is fueled by multiple factors: advancements in wireless communication technologies (5G), increased adoption of cloud platforms, and the declining costs of sensors and hardware. The global IoT market is segmen...

Securing the Internet of Things: The Role of Identity Access Management in Protecting IoT Devices

The Internet of Things (IoT) has revolutionized numerous sectors, including consumer businesses, industrial applications, energy and utility systems, building and facilities management, mobility, and infrastructure. This widespread adoption has transformed how people, processes, and technologies converge to drive improvements. However, as IoT technology becomes more ubiquitous, so do the security concerns associated with it. From geopolitical factors to vulnerabilities in home-based smart devices, the need for robust security measures is evident. Organizations of all sizes recognize the importance of protecting IoT devices from hacking, data breaches, and privacy issues, whether voluntarily or due to regulatory frameworks like the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). One of the most effective ways to address these cybersecurity concerns is through IoT Identity and Access Management (IAM) solutions. Unlike traditional IAM systems, ...

Navigating the IoT Identity and Access Management: Balancing Innovation and Security in a Connected World

One of the most extensively used technologies today is the IoT Identity and Access Management . It can be found in many different domains, such as consumer goods, industrial applications, energy and utility systems, building and facilities management, infrastructure, mobility, and more. A change in how people, processes, and technologies converge and produce improvements has resulted from this widespread adoption. But as IoT technology becomes more widely used, so are the security issues that come with it, which can range from smart household appliances to geopolitical issues. As a result, businesses of all kinds now understand how critical it is to safeguard IoT devices against privacy concerns, data breaches, and hackers. Regulations such as the California Consumer Protection Act (CCPA) and the General Data Privacy Rule (GDPR) may impose this security focus or make it voluntary. Technology providers have begun creating Identity Access Management (IAM) solutions that can easily conn...

Global Market Share for Microsegmentation, Expected from 2022 to 2027

  As organizations embrace cloud-native infrastructure and witness a proliferation of IoT devices, the potential for insecure connections in the IT ecosystem grows due to the surge in remote work. Microsegmentation solutions empower organizations to enhance agility by enabling administrators to adjust segmentation policies in response to varying cyberattack risks. Quadrant Knowledge Solutions defines ' Microsegmentation ' as a security mechanism that empowers internal security teams to balance access among diverse workloads in the network landscape. It achieves this by breaking down critical databases and workloads into different microsegments, leveraging network virtualization to reduce the attack surface and thwart cyberthreats from infiltrating the organizational IT systems. This approach enables organizations to formulate security policies within each microsegment based on the behavior of users and devices within the corporate network perimeter. Microsegmentation solutions ...
