Internet of Things
The Internet of Things (IoT) offers a new generation of internet-connected devices and has the potential to significantly impact environmental monitoring, agriculture, and disaster recovery, among others. IoT’s applications range from self-driving cars to smart cities; it can benefit the energy, health, agriculture, and manufacturing industries alike.
Ecma International, for example, is dedicated to developing global standards for a wide range of information and communication systems, which includes the many interrelated developments in consumer electronics (CE) and IoT. A key concern of IoT integrations into various infrastructures is the security of the network; the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) technical committees are carrying out essential work in devising safety standards for the technology.
