The Grapeboard is ideal for applications that require a combination of CPU performance, high-speed networking, data storage and retrieval; including sensor gateways, communication hubs and secure edge devices.
Combining a 64-bit ARM® v8-based processor (LS1012A) with network packet acceleration and QorIQ trust architecture security capabilities, the Grapeboard features line-rate networking performance at low power all on a small form factor board.
2. IoT applications
Reports predicts that the number of devices connected to IoT will reach
20 billion to 50 billion worldwide by 2020
As IoT applications collect more and more previously unexposed often
private data, and allow access to various control functions over the
internet, security becomes a major challenge
3. IoT Security
Everything is susceptible to security breaches – from Point of Sale to
baby monitors. Any device that has network connectivity is vulnerable.
Personal data that is collected by IoT devices is always of value to data
hackers and identity thieves.
Also, a cyber attack on IoT solutions has the potential to cripple
physical services and infrastructure.
4. Challenge
Internet of Things (IoT) solutions are complex networks of devices and
sensors that collect and exchange data over networks and the cloud.
With more and more data being exposed to more and more
applications, security is a major challenge for IoT developers.
5. Various vulnerabilities
Protect against a "fake" server that sends malicious commands, or
protect against a hacker that tries to listen to private sensor data being
sent from the devices.
Protect against a "fake" device that sends false measurements that
might corrupt the data that is being persisted in the application.
Protect against the invalid use of data, or protect against the
manipulation of analytical processes that are running in the application
tier.
