Editor’s Note: Securing the Internet of Things is essential for preserving the integrity of data streams, firmware, and the enterprise resources they connect to. IoT security is a multifaceted challenge that demands a systematic approach to identify threats and implement effective mitigations. Adap

In May 2019, our research team monitored 56 million IoT transactions across more than 1,000 organizations, representing 270 distinct device types. That volume is over 150 times higher than the traffic we measured in 2016, underscoring the rapid expansion of IoT deployments in enterprise environments

Edge audio processing has become a critical focus as voice interfaces proliferate across consumer devices and smart home systems. While most users accept voice controls, they remain wary of latency, limited functionality, and privacy risks tied to sending conversations to the cloud. To address these

A convergence of emerging technologies is tightening the campus core, the backbone of every enterprise network. The surge of high‑throughput Wi‑Fi 6 access points (APs), the explosion of IoT endpoints, the rapid shift to cloud‑centric workloads, and the redesign of data centers away from bulky chass

Cypress has unveiled a secure variant of its PSoC 6 microcontroller family, the PSoC 64 MCU, designed to elevate data protection in IoT ecosystems. The chip comes with a fully integrated system‑level security stack that establishes an isolated root‑of‑trust, complete with real‑time attestation and p

SAN JOSE, Calif – While cities accelerate the shift to LED streetlights, the integration of Internet‑of‑Things (IoT) capabilities remains a work in progress. Together, Telensa and Signify (the former Philips lighting unit) have installed almost 2 million LED streetlights worldwide, a modest fraction

STMicroelectronics’ STSafe‑A100 evaluation pack, part of the STM32 Nucleo ecosystem, delivers ready‑to‑use source code that accelerates the design of secure IoT devices, industrial accessories, and consumer electronics.
