Introduction The National Fire Protection Association records over one million fires each year. These fires rank as one of the top threats to urban safety in the United States. Currently, fire departments largely rely on traditional fire detection systems composed of in-home smoke detectors, fire call boxes, and public notification (calls) to receive their alerts. These systems may lack additional information, such as scope, scale, and location of the fire. The Internet of Things (IoT) is a key technology that can help cities streamline their infrastructure to proactively detect fires and impr ..read more

With the growing adoption of Internet of Things (IoT) applications in regulated industries, such as healthcare, hardening IoT security devices has become a requirement. In addition to ensuring that backend systems are resilient, organizations increasingly invest effort to secure devices outside the traditional enterprise perimeter with zero trust principles. For example, fleet operators for connected medical devices need to ensure that the product does not exhibit anomalous behavior and function as designed. When a device’s security posture is compromised, it’s vital that these events are effi ..read more

As the number of Internet of Things (IoT) devices increase exponentially, enterprises need advanced tools that can leverage location data to manage their IoT fleets across different geographies. Knowing your devices’ location is important not only for asset management and theft detection, but also to dispatch timely remediation when your devices are non-operational. Moreover by combining location and device state metadata, you can derive richer insights about your IoT fleet, such as detecting location-specific connectivity issues or understanding usage trends by location. As an example, if you ..read more
