The Internet of Things
- 1. Tony Hall Director IOT Software Platform, Cisco Systems Inc. Jan 2016 The Internet of Things
- 2. What Is This “Internet of Things” • Connect Everyday Objects and Sensors to the Internet • Interfaces, Electro-Mechanicals, Protocols … and more • Bring Operational “Thing” Data into Business Processes IoT
- 3. The Potential of IoT Many Things: Vendor-controlled data Used for: Monitoring Value 1 Thing : 1 App Many Apps “Works with Nest” Smart Things Customer-owned data Used for: ERP, single pane of glass Many Things: Many Apps: Many Times/sec Just-in-time automation Fanuc ZDT Hyper-scale cloud data + local compute Used for: automation, self-healing
- 4. IoT Completes the Collaboration Process People Connecting People in More Relevant, Valuable Ways Process Delivering the Right Information to the Right Person (or Machine) at the Right Time Data Leveraging Data into More Useful Information for Decision Making Things Physical Devices and Objects Connected to the Internet and Each Other for Intelligent Decision Making Digitization
- 5. 7.26.8 7.6 Rapid Adoption Rate of Digital Infrastructure: 5X Faster Than Electricity and Telephony 50 Billion “Smart Objects” 50 2010 2015 2020 0 40 30 20 10 BILLIONSOFDEVICES 25 12.5 Inflection Point TIMELINE Source: Cisco IBSG, 2011 World Population The New Essential Infrastructure IoT Is Here Now and Growing
- 6. Granular Security In Larger Things Unique Challenges to IoT Access to Things On Internal Networks Thing Operational Lifespan Physical Access Firewall Holes Policies and Infrastructure To Defend The Things Simple Sensors Remote Management Practices, Use the Cloud Compromised Things Made to Attack Locked Down Device Policies and Procedures for “Insider Attacks” Manage Large Sets of Security Credentials Prevent Attack Storms Highly Scalable Solutions How to support Single Customer to 10+ Million Things Mission Critical Availability Incur Downtime Paradigm Shift – Rethink “Shutdown- Change-Restart”
- 7. IoT Epic – Conclusion What To Watch • Demand Scales Quickly • Provide Integration with Cloud Services • Maintain Security • Manage Your OT Networks CIO Challenges • More Visibility to Product Use • Creates New Revenue Opportunities • Operational Efficiencies Improving Your P & L IoT is Changing Business Real Customers Tangible Results Cisco Is Key Partner for Your Success IoT is Here, Now
Editor's Notes
- Key Points Most people think of IoT as just the connetion of millions of different “things” to the internet That in and of itself is a complex problem Many Types of Interfaces Many Types of Electro-mechanical Connections Many types of Data Protocols You can See how the problem grows exponentially in complexity But the way business needs to think about IoT is bringing the Operational (i.e., real time) Sensor Data into the business decision making process Currently Data is digested into reports then reviewed Delay between Measurement and Evaluation No Interactivity Key Point: Time Value of Data decreases very quickly More Human understandable Sensor data Higher Value when exposed broadly to teams
- “Crawl” First implementations of IoT Only 1 app has access to data from each sensor. Customer quickly frustrated over separate apps [CLICK] “Walk” Think in terms of open ecosystems Expose APIs Customer can choose how they want to use the data [CLICK] “Run” When you grow to enterprise-grade deployment Avalanche/Tsunami of data Need to react to conditions/make decisions in real time Combination of cloud and edge compute – new analytics models, policies
- NOTE: Today’s Cisco Beat introduced the term “Digitization” to replace IoE Collaboration involves decision making People – the right people working in a team Process – the recipe for scalable and repeatable business operations Data – historical, post processed, and summarized for context Thing Data – What is happening over the short term Is our Busineess operating in the sweet spot? What or where are the issues Ecosystem that enables faster and more applicable business decisions
- Source: Cisco presentation from IoT Partner Overview, Katherine Fahey (no longer at Cisco). Obtained from search of WWWIN Points: There are a large number of devices and the ramp rate is steep Superimpose the Connectors, Protocols, Data Models, and get scared Then add on Deployment scenarios and Access: E.g., Sites, Fog, Cloud, etc And with each of these then there is Security, Data Access Policy, So the net solution to a business is very complex.
- Some things have long operational deployments Access to the sensors may be difficult (out of the way, buried deep) so today, simpler is better. With IoT, these sensors may be more sophisticated, so Need to think about Remote Management practices, e.g., Cloud managed Internal IoT Networks Must Expose Some or All “Things” Traditionally you’d either require on-site access, or punch holes in firewalls (risky) Today you’re going to need a scalable process to enable access to the devices Access Policies, Authentication, Limits (Time, Location) Need Policies and Infrastructure to protect the Things from Attacks an malware Attackers, especially from the inside of the company can easily compromise some “Things” Insiders can compromise “Things” Using Valid Security Credentials Those things then use their valid security credentials to attack internally Up to now, prevention was locking down the device, or using a dumb sensor. Going forward, with smart Things, companies will need well planned policies and procedures to deny Insider Attacks Sophisticated “Things” Need Granular Security Access Models. This is essentially things of Things where there many IoT devices within the thing (I don’t think there is an analogous ‘where we came from for this one’) Manage Security Certificates for Huge Number of Spare Parts Solutions Will Require High Scalability Single Customer 10+ Millions of Things in Tiered Access Models in Worldwide Deployments Many situations will have mission-critical needs Complex Things may need to be restarted, even in High Availability deployments. Have to rethink Shutdown-Cleanup-Restart response paradigm; it’s no longer adequate
