4. Overview
 Technology is changing every aspect of our lives. The
benefits provided by new digital approaches are
having a huge impact on our societies. However, one
of the greatest business challenges is not about the
devices, software or solutions – it is about how we
manage the process of cultural change and its effect
to our society. In this module we will learn what are
the different technological advancements and future
trends in technology that could potentially change
and shaped the way we live our lives.

5. Lesson 1: Internet of things
 The Internet of Things can include anything with a
sensor that is assigned a unique identifier (UID). The
primary goal of the IoT is to create self-reporting
devices that can communicate with each other (and
users) in real time.
 Just about anything with network connectivity
belongs to the internet of things, from security
cameras, speakers, smart watches/ wearable
technology, connected cars,and smart home.

6. How IoT works
 An IoT ecosystem consists of web-enabled smart devices that use embedded
systems, such as processors, sensors and communication hardware, to
collect, send and act on data they acquire from their environments. IoT
devices share the sensor data they collect by connecting to an IoT gateway
or other edge device where data is either sent to the cloud to be analyzed or
analyzed locally. Sometimes, these devices communicate with other related
devices and act on the information they get from one another. The devices
do most of the work without human intervention, although people can
interact with the devices -- for instance, to set them up, give them
instructions or access the data.
 The connectivity, networking and communication protocols used with
these web-enabled devices largely depend on the specific IoT applications
deployed. IoT can also make use of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine
learning to aid in making data collecting processes easier and more dynamic

7. Why IoT is important?

8. Why IoT is important
The internet of things helps people live and
work smarter, as well as gain complete control
over their lives. In addition to offering smart
devices to automate homes, IoT is essential to
business. IoT provides businesses with a real-
time look into how their systems really work,
delivering insights into everything from the
performance of machines to supply chain and
logistics operations.
As such, IoT is one of the most
important technologies of
everyday life, and it will
continue to pick up steam as
more businesses realize the
potential of connected devices
to keep them competitive.
IoT enables companies to
automate processes and reduce
labor costs. It also cuts down on
waste and improves service
delivery, making it less expensive
to manufacture and deliver goods,
as well as offering transparency
into customer transactions.

13. Pros and cons of loT
Advantages of loT
•ability to access information from anywhere at any
time on any device;
• improved communication between connected
electronic devices;
• transferring data packets over a connected network
saving time and money; and
•automating tasks helping to improve the quality of a
business's services and reducing the need for human
intervention..

14. Disadvantages of loT
• As the number of connected devices increases and more
information is shared between devices, the potential that a
hacker could steal confidential information also increases
.. Enterprises may eventually have to deal with massive numbers
-- maybe even millions -- of lot devices, and collecting and
managing the data from all those devices will be challenging.
• If there's a bug in the system, it's likely that every connected
device will become corrupted.
• Since there's no international standard of compatibility for loT,
it's difficult for devices from different manufacturers to
communicate with each other.

16. Consumer and enterprise HoT applications
 There are numerous real-world applications of the
internet of things, ranging from coper lo enterprise

32. Iot security and privacy issues
 internet of things brings all the benefits of the internet to items like lightbulbs
and thermostats, but it brings all the problems of the internet, too. Now that
people have their speakers, television sets, refrigerators, alarm clocks,
toothbrushes, light bulbs, doorbells, baby monitors, and security cameras
connected to the Wi-Fi, nearly every device in the house can be compromised,
or rendered useless. Consider the whims of internet connectivity:
 The threat to internet-connected devices comes not just because they’re
connected to the internet, but because device manufacturers have not always
designed their products with security as a priority. In 2016, malware called
Mirai exploited these kinds of vulnerabilities in over 600,000 IoT devices to
create a massive distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack. The following year,
an attack called Krack infected nearly every internet-connected device
connected to Wi-Fi.

33. Here are some examples of security and
privacy issues related to Iot device;
 1. Smart Camera Hacking
- Example:There have been instances where hackers
gain access to smart security cameras and use them to
spy inside the home. If the camera is not secure,
hackers can watch live footage or record it without
permission.

34. Here are some examples of security and privacy issues
related to Iot device;
 1. Smart Camera Hacking
- Example:There have
been instances where
hackers gain access to
smart security cameras and
use them to spy inside the
home. If the camera is not
secure, hackers can watch
live footage or record it
without permission.

35.  2. Vulnerability of Smart
Door Locks
- Example: Smart door
locks connected to Wi-Fi
can be hacked. When this
happens, a hacker can
unlock the door without a
physical key, putting the
residents at risk of theft or
unauthorized entry.

36.  3. DDoS Attacks Using IoT
Devices
- Example: In 2016, the Mirai
malware was used to control
hundreds of thousands of IoT
devices, such as security
cameras and routers. These
devices were used to carry out
a large-scale distributed
denial of service (DDoS)
attack, which caused major
websites like Twitter and
Netflix to go offline.

37.  4. Data Collection in Smart
Assistants
- Example:Voice-activated
smart assistants like Amazon
Alexa or Google Assistant
record users' voices and
collect information. If privacy
settings are not configured
correctly, companies or third
parties may use this
information for advertising or
other unexpected purposes.

38.  5. Privacy Breach in Baby
Monitor
- Example: Some smart
baby monitors** have been
reported to be hacked,
allowing hackers to access
the camera and watch or
even communicate with the
baby. This is a major risk to
the family's privacy.

39. THE FUTURE OF THE INTERNET OF THINGS
 One day, the internet of things will become the internet of everything. The
objects in our world might sense and react to us individually all the time, so
that a smart thermostat automatically adjusts based on your body temperature
or the house automatically locks itself when you get into bed. Your clothes
might come with connected sensors, too, so that the things around you can
respond to your movements in real time. That’s already starting to happen: In
2017, Google announced Project Jacquard, an effort to create the connected
wardrobe of the future.
 This vision extends far beyond your clothes, a Autonomous vehicles will
connect to the internet and drive along roads studded with sensors, and
governments will manage the demands on their energy grids by tracking
household energy consumption through the internet of things. The growth of
the internet of things could also lead to new kinds of cyber warfare; imagine a
bad actor disabling every smart thermostat in the dead of winter, or hacking
into internet-connected pacemakers and insulin pumps.
