In the IoT world, security is one of the biggest challenges. When you’re connecting multiple devices together over a network, various doors are left ajar to security threats, along with an increase in the number of doors themselves that open to the involved data transmissions.
However, data transmissions are an integral part of IoT, because they allow devices to share various types of data among themselves and transmit it to other devices, including notifications and media files. This ability is essential for IoT ecosystems, in which devices need to communicate efficiently to perform complex tasks. However, access to the data channel must be both restricted and encrypted to maintain security.
